Essentially both test vehicles operated somewhat normally...

EDIT: Should we try this on a small-scale first, like a lawn mower? Winter is setting in here so it just sits in the garage. Sounds like fun!

You could try it on a smaller scale, but there are directions available for converting B&S (older) motors to run on kerosene, as I noted above. I'll see about copyright info and see if I can scan the page, provided I still have access to the original manual.
I'll also try to see if I can find it online somewhere. I believe the end result is increased power on gasoline, and about 25% less power on kerosene, but ~25% increased fuel economy. (lbs/hp-hr)
