I have an aircraft maintenance shop that specializes in turbine powered equipment. All the fuel we remove from the aircraft tanks during repairs, I take home to the farm and run my Kubota tractor,RTV-900, and diesel lawnmower on it. It is classified as JP-4 and runs really well. Easier to start in the winter( what little we have down here in Texas)oil stays a little cleaner, and it makes a great degreaser.
