It sure is. Along with red diesel, heating oil, white spirit, and apparently any other type of mineral oil. Veggie oils are for the time being OK but limited to 2500 litres per year for non commercial use before you have to pay duty on it.isnt kerosene illegal to use on the road ?
i knew of a bloke who used o buy 500 gallons of kerosene and add new engine oil (cant remember the quantity) to it and run his diesel vehicles on it !
its s bit like red deisel in the eyes of the law
Synthetic oils are absolutely fine, any oil will do apart from brake oils as Shifty suggested. I've had constant problems with DOT4 absorbing water on the hydraulic brake system on my push bike, it's like the sponge of oils! Stupid stuff really. See if your local elderly peoples care home will give you a few hundred litres of old heating oil when it comes time to swap!

Took me a while to make the leap of faith but so long as you've got a plentiful supply and the space to store and filter it you'll wonder why you took so long. Especially when your wallet is not so empty. I've probably only bought £50 worth of diesel this year and I've driven more than 6k miles since January. That works out at apprx 600 mpg.i keep meaning t get set up n try this oil filterin lark but i ant ad time as yet........................but i will get round t it!
