Can you use diesel in place of k1 kerosene?
Typically cars either burn gasoline or diesel fuel if the engines are equipped to burn that. Kerosene is normally not used in a diesel but it will function in an emergency just as well as diesel fuel except that the injection parts will not receive much lubrication. But it will get you home in a pinch. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a wick type kerosene heater then no. Diesel fuel will smoke and stink compared to kerosene. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a kerosene heater that is like a salamander, then maybe. I use #2 diesel in my salamander and it works fine and heats my garage up ok. Kerosene does burn cleaner though.

Can you use diesel fuel instead of kerosene in your Reddy Heater 150000btu?
It depends upon the brand or model of heater. As a general rule, most salamanders or heaters can use either. You just have to try it and see. If it doesn't work and smokes a lot, you drain it out and resort to kerosene again.

The SX-B21 Kerosene Heater has a wick that is located at the base of the heater. When changing the wick out always be sure to pour out any kerosene that may be left in the lamp.
