No.1 middle distillate is also known as kerosene.
Jet fuel and "winter blend" are mixes of No.1 and No.2.
I mix it in 25% in the depths of winter to prevent gelling.
No. 1 has a lower heat content and you can expect about 15% lower MPG using it.
I wouldn't run No. 1 much with an old-style Bosch or Roosa-Master injection pump, but I don't think it will hurt HEUI (pumpa dusa) or common-rail injectors. these are not as dependent on the fuel for lubrication.
No.6 residual oil will run a diesel but you have to heat it up to 600 degrees to get it to flow. Mix No. 6 resid with aggregate and you have road asphalt. But No.6 does have a lot of heating value - and outrageous sulfur.
No. 4 middle distillate has more heating value than No.1 or No.2, but I haven't seen this stuff sold since the 70s.
