In the Gulf War, we didn't have _any_ diesel. We used Jet A-1, which is,
essentially, really clean kerosene. Worked just fine. However, it has
almost no lubricating properties, so we'd add 1 quart of 10W oil to
30-50 gallons of Jet A-1. This was in CUCVs, HMMWVs, M800 series, M900
series and LVS. We never had a fuel related problem.

Use one of the many military 28v generators.
