My guess would have to be probably not. if it were possible and easy to do you would probably see tons of threads on how to ignite diesel fumes. probably your best chance of doing it easy was to run real lean
Heres one way.... Duramax Flame Thrower - |

no it wont......its a combustable not a flamable
diesel fuel is very hard to lite as it dont flash well.......gatta add bout 20% gas to get er lit flame throwers use propane - |

No hydrocarbon that has reached its flash point can be reburned without a massive amount of heat ie...5000+ degree's. You cant use diesel as a flame thrower in your stack and if you try to do that let me know where you are when ya do it so that I can make sure I'm on the other side of the planet.

Because of the scavenging affect of the pressurized gas flowing through the orifice you wont get the flame back up through the line. -

Just use a standard propane line. Much cheaper and will do the same thing. -
