Re: Jet Fuel A in 7.3's

I dont KNOW this but from what I have read on this subject is your truck will obviously run on it BUT....Jet A doesnt have the same lubricating properties that #2 does. So basically its not that great for the injectors and maybe some other stuff in you truck. A helicopter pilot I was talking with a few years ago was flying from here (Calif.) back to Alaska. He said he had to land for fuel about every 2 hours. He also said some of the places he takes on fuel in Alaska pump #2, Jet A, and Kerosene out of the same tank. So of course that would mean it is ALL Jet A in the tank if aircraft fill from it. So obviously people do it but I guess that doesnt make it a GOOD idea even if its free. Im sure someone with more knowledge on the subject will answer up soon. Tom
