Is BP 2380 Turbine Oil ok for running kero in Kingtech Engines? (K-60,K-80, ETC?)
Hi guys. My nice new K-60 arrived right on target but I'm a bit confused as to what is safe for oil to be run in this turbine. I'm planning to run it on kero and have always used the BP 2380 Turbine Oil before. But there are a number of reports that this turbine oil or that turbine oil isn't safe to run and I'd like to just get a definitive answer to see if this will be safe or not. Thanks for the help!

Considering that Kingtech has there own turbine oil which they sell I can't see any dealer recommending anything else except there own Kingtech oil.
However in reality I can't see any problems in using the turbine oil you are using. A thing to consider is will Kingtech still give warranty if something happens if you are not using there brand of oil.
This is just my logical thinking and not an expert advise.

Some people choose to use 2380 because they might operate several different brand turbines and need one oil that works with all their engines. Mobil 2380 oil is fine for kingtech engines and does not void the warranty.
