PERMISSIBLE FUELS NOTE Primary fuels listed below must be used whenever possible. Alternate I fuels are most desirable if primary fuels are not available, with emergency fuel the least desirable. FUEL TEMPERATURE LIMITS ________ WARNING ________ Never mix JP-4 turbine fuel with other fuels outside of vehicle fuel tank. Any mixing should be done by adding fuels to fuel tank. JP-4 turbine fuels are highly combustible and may explode, resulting in injury to personnel. CAUTION ______ If engine runs rough when using any emergency fuel, add 10% to 30% diesel fuel to smooth engine performance. Failure to add diesel fuel may result in damage to pistons, clogging of fuel fil- ter, and early failure of fuel injectors. Table 1-2. Permissible Fuels.
