I read in Road and Track that US diesel fuels have lower lubricity than

the
euro diesel. This can cause problems with the new import diesels.

Does anyone know about Jet A?

Will this affect the SMA and Thielert engines?


Jet-A has much lower lubricity than diesel fuel. The Thielert is
specifically made to run on Jet-A...I would guess all aero diesels
are.

I wouldn't recommend running Jet-A in a road diesel though, unless
you can modify the injector pump.
