From the Kingtech engine manual:
KingTech engines use Diesel, 1-K kerosene or Jet-A1 for fuel. Fuel must be mixed with 5%KingTech Special Blend or synthetic turbine oil (Aeroshell 500 and all 2-stroke oil areprohibited), or 1 quart of oil in every 5 gallons of fuel. Among the above 3 types of fuelKingTech highly recommends using regular pump Diesel as they are readily available,inexpensive and having a higher energy density and up to 10 to 12% better fuel efficiency.
For best result and full core warranty, use KingTech Oil only, it is proven to be the cleanestand has the best lubrication properties for our engines, please refer to the below comparisonchart:
