jp8?
 
WE run it in the military on all our vehicles, and from my understandin its diesel mixed with a bit of jet fuel.. The humvees have a 6.5 gm in them, could i run jp8 in my cummins or would i make new parts inside it?

yes you can run jp8 in your truck but it will run like shit. jp8 is a diesel/Kerosene mix and has a very very low sulfur content. SGT US ARMY.

If you do a search for JP8 or Jet Fuel you will come up with several posts on the subject and the final conclusion on all of them is that it is no good for your truck. And I'm sure there's a little somethin mention in the UCMJ about what the outcome would be also.:w2: I'll be the first to admit that I thought about it a few times as I'm sittin there with a few dozen fuel cans full just layin around but it wasn't worth riskin my truck and career for just to save a few bucks.

Haha yea, I just got outta the Marines, and I had always wondered what would happen if I put in, but yea the adivce that itll make my truck run like sh!t has been heeded.. I think I spelled heeded wrong........
