Im not going to debate anyone, but I can tell you this, as Ive sen it done. 1941 M with a kerosene/distilate manifold, started on 5 gallons of gas, run idling for about 10 - 15 minutes, flapper on manifold moved, (to what I dont recall), then worked for about 45 minutes, 5 gallons of diesel added and ran hard until smoke cleared up, then another 5 gallons of diesel, five gallons of kerosene added and tractor ran like that all day.On cooler days when it was in the feild working, trashbag or burlap bag put over part of grill to keep the temp up. Dad farmed like that for several years. Tractor still running, but retired to show duty, today, no damage occured.
