Is it ok to use kerosene in a diesel engine ???? And what effects would it have on the 02 sensor/ cat. converter?

Hi guy. I'm no diesel person but Kerosene is one up on the refining from Diesel and heating oil one down the scale. Are cat converters ever used in diesels? Can't imagine they'd last a week nor O2 sensors?? What do I know?

To tell you the truth I don't recall seeing one either, well goes to show where my mind is, and speaking of cat.converters...crooks are stilling them off of cars at the dealerships here, the news said that there is a blackmarket for them and the value is $150.00 each. WOW, you can put a locking gas cap on your car,but what about the cat.c.???Shocked
