Where is the source that KLM uses JP8+100 in it's boeing fleet? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Noserider (talk • contribs) 09:47, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Removed ridiculous cut'n'paste of ATV sales literature. WTF was this doing here anyway? Does Wikipedia need a smug quote from the managing director of a company making ATVs on a page about Jet fuel? Puhleese. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.6.43.59 (talk) 16:18, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


A temperature change of 100F is not the same as a temperature of 100F. This is the reason for changing from ~38C to 55.5C. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.150.121.88 (talk) 23:09, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what is meant by "specified in 1990 by the U.S. government." but we started using JP-8 in the US Army unit I was in at Ft. Bliss (B Btry 3/43 ADA Patriot) in 1987 or early 1988 in all diesel engine equipment; generators, turbine generators, HEMTT's, GM CUCV's, 5 ton trucks, as well as duece and a halfs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ftbliss (talk • contribs) 07:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"PIE"?[edit]

What is "PIE"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.92.17.193 (talk) 09:28, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Is sulfur here a problem or being used as "lubricant" ?[edit]

Sorry but even with my relatively decent english language skills I'm not enough of a jet fuel engineer to understand fully this passage:

"Another problem in diesel engines can be the increased wear in outlet valve seats in the cylinder heads, because a minimum content of sulfur is not specified in MIL-DTL-83133G. Sulfur in fuels contributes normally to build up damping soot layers in these valve seats. According to the notes in this standard it is intended to install a value for the cetane index in one of the next releases."

Does "damping soot layers" mean that sulfur has a beneficial effect on the engine, as in lubrication or does this mean that sulfur has an adverse effect on the engines? Thanks. 84.215.32.86 (talk) 14:00, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Valve seat wear has been eliminated on 2007+ Diesel engines the same way they were on Leaded Gasoline Engines. -The US Military never had issues on combat ready diesel vehicles running JP8. 1993 HMMUV Technical Manual states JP8 may be used when #2 Diesel is not available. Even some vehicles, like the M52 and M55 were Multi Fuel, and could run on MoGas, Diesel, JP4,JP5,JP8, A,A-1. *source USAF Vehicle Control Officer, (1996-2000) sourcing Technical Manuals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tluttrell (talk • contribs) 02:43, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
