I have seen on FTE and other sites, on and off, debate about using diesel vs jet-a I know some people with older trucks that have used jet-a and say they run better. Here is an interesting article from the AMT (aviation maintenance technology) magazine about this. Yes in deals with the newest diesel aircraft engines but thought it was still interesting.

Thanks for the head's up on this.

Good reading.

Not sure I'm yet ready for a two-liter diesel 172t.
