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....

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.

You need to use propane or butane and use a spark ignition. -

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. -
