Re: Jet Fuel A in 7.3's

A jet engine running a compressor ratio of 24 bar is far less picky about fuel than a powerstroke diesel with it's persnickety HEUI injectors. IF the stuff you get is clean and dry AND you can put a lubricant in it, it would beat walking, but dirty or water logged fuel is junk, and the price on replacement injectors far exceeds what you will save on a couple barrels of "free" jet A.
