Graham,
Thanks for the link. For no particular reason, I had assumed truck fuel was cruder, less refined etc, than camp stove fuel, the latter needing to burn very cleanly under less than ideal conditions.
So, on to a search for infromation on all the kero/diesel fuels that are available. Keeping in mind that although we would all like to use Jet A, you can't get it that easily. But you never know till you try,,, may go up to the airport today and talk to the people there.
