An important comment about fuels:
As noted before in this thread, Wallas kerosene products should burn 1K kerosene. Diesel fired Wallas products should burn diesel.
Burning products like mineral spirits or other substances in Wallas kerosene devices (or diesel devices for that matter) that are not specifically fuels put you at risk that those substances may not be appropriate for your Wallas device
Mineral spirits are ungraded and not specifically fuels, and the manufacturer has no stake in making the product specifically a fuel. Unfortunately, some products now being marketed as mineral spirits have components in them that can foul your Wallas product and send it in for servicing.
Even worse, some users took the idea that mineral spirits and paint thinner are the same thing and ran with it, putting paint thinner into their Wallas device(s). Paint thinners can contain brush conditioners and other substances not at all good for your Wallas.
1-K kerosene is a "graded" kerosene fuel. This is the right product to use in your kerosene fired Wallas.
Thanks for using Wallas!
