So what's going to happen to a Jetcat P-20 P-120, Munts K90 K140 or Wren SS turbines if I run them on diesel & 5% oil ?

They will all run rough! The P-20 will be the worst, will also run for least amount of time before the sooty Diesel cloggs the tiny needles with carbon deposits, the pump Diesel also has other additives for car use...JetCat for sure will offer no warrantee...
The combustion chamber needs to be re designed, fuel needles filters all need changes.

From what I hear most engines rundiesel just fine not rough at all but it's the long term use and how it will effect relaiblty that is the concern.
