Default Gasoline for jetengines on non jetairplanes

Hallo,

many C119/123; B36; Neputnes and several other airplanes with
reciprocating-engines were fitted jet -engines as "boosters".
Now the question:
did they use avgas for these jets or jetfuel from a special tank ?
Greetings

The B-36 burned avgas in all engines, even when it was "six turning and
four burning."
