KR> Military fuels 55 years ago my uncle had a McCormick farm tractor that started on gasoline then switched over to kerosene to run. My uncle would only run the engine for less than 10 second on gasoline before switching to the kerosene. The gasoline tank held about a quart and the kerosene tank held about 8 gallons. Ignition was spark plugs driven by a magneto. My uncle would plow all day on eight gallons of kerosene.
