A few years ago, Dad purchased a new torpedo heater that can run on either kerosene or off-road diesel fuel. We find it is quite convenient to just fill it up from the off-road tank outside.
The torpedo heater in my shop is a little bit older and is made to only run on kerosene. This is the only thing we use kerosene for and it is quite inconvenient to keep a drum of kerosene on hand for this heater only.
My question is, what would need to be done to convert my heater to be able to run on diesel fuel instead of kerosene? Is this a different orifice size, or pump pressure, or do I even have to do anything? Dad's heater can run either fuel without any adjustments from the operator.
