Since 1965, diesel engine endurance tests have been conducted in a variety of compression-ignition engines using JP-5 or 'JP-8 as the fuel and comp Iaring performances with DP-2. None 'of these tests showed engine failures or excessive wear attributable to the use of kerosene-type aircraft turbine fuels, although slightly reduced fuel injection delivery volumes and lower 'power output were experienced in most engines, due to lower viscosity and lower heat content of JP-5 and JP-8 compared to DF-2.' These results not withstanding. % periodically, concerns are r~aised about the use of JP-5 and JP-8 in diesel engines over -long periods in the 500-to 1000-hour time frame, especially in new engine designs.
