Kerosene, is basically #1 diesel.    Kerosene in general is just highly
refined #1 diesel.

The differences are:
    Little to no sulfur ( possible give away as far as smell is concerned )
    Lower BTU ( shorter than average carbon chains, than standard diesel )
    Dry ( little to no lubrication for pumps and injectors )

I have heard a rumor of a Government ( don't know who ) requiring the
addition of a chemical other than a dye ( to non-road fuel ) to allow the
use of a portable spectrometer.    How close did they fallow?
