Re: ******/Ford Engine Swap? Possible?
Yes, I believe all diesels should add a gallon of gasoline with
each tank fill. It's do amazing things towards the cleansing of our
environment.
Thanks Mike, for the attempt to put us back on topic. ;-)

Re: ******/Ford Engine Swap? Possible?
The Navy did, in fact, run its early jets-Banshees and Panthers-on
115/145 Avgas. The worst possible jet fuel, and one that would destroy
the hot section on a modern engine quickly-but it was also the fuel
used by the J-47s-in modified B-47 pods-used on B-36s. The burner cans
and T wheels would foul and they would clean them by injections of
pulverized walnut hulls. Lesser grades of Avgas worked ok provided the
engine was _trimmed_ to use the fuel, and a little oil was added , or
in the case of the B-36 a modified fuel controller was used.
Leaded gasoline is not under any circumstances permitted for
continuous use in any modern gas turbine. _Unleaded_ gasoline is an OK
alternate fuel on some engines, but again it neeeds oil and must be
trimmed for the fuel used. Read The Fantastic Manual!
The T-2 Buckeye actually has a small lever on the throttle quadrant
for "AVGAS" or "JET FUEL". The fuel controller has a switchable valve
and the engine is trimmmed for each fuel.
On the new FADEC engines, I don't know what the procedure is. On
mechanical engines, use of any fuel for which the engine is not
trimmed is automatically an "emergency" rather than "alternate" fuel.
The main objection to flying #1 Diesel with an antifreeze (Prist)
today is its higher sulfur and vanadium content. A number of the
warjet guys are flying on it anyway and with ULSD introduction it will
probably be STC'd for a lot of the turboprop and helo fleet,enabling
owners to truck their own fuel and leveraging Jet A retail costs down.
For the record: I am not now nor have I ever advocated operating any
aircraft on any fuel not approved both by the engine manufacturer AND,
on ATC'd aircraft, the Type Certificate Data Sheet (or an approved
STC). Since oIIIIIIIIo has never seen a TCDS or an engine Type
Certificate, he will doubtless post more --------, but that's the
straight poop.

It will start and run. Whether it will vapor lock or freeze and flame
out on climbout or overtemp when you go to takeoff power,is another
question. But if I was on the ramp in an overrun third world shithole
and it was fly out or get taken prisoner, I'd do it. It would, with
