I have about 25 gallons of kerosene left over from winter and I was wondering if I could use it in my ck30 if it was diluted with off road diesel fuel.What I don't know is the persentage to use per gallon of diesel.I have some friends that have bigger equipment and they use up to 50 percent in the winter. I would like some oppions. Thank's all

Sell it to your friends. I wouldn't dare use it in the CK30 unless the manual allowed for it in the dead of the cold winter.
 
Hi,
During the winter months Kioti allows for a 20% mixture of Kero to help keep fuel from gelling. The Kero does not lubricate as well as the regular diesel.
If I were going to use it I would go with a 10% mix and add a little howe's lubricant. You should be OK with that formula. (That is 10% Kero to 90% diesel) I'm sure you knew that, but you can't be too careful.
