Cool

DO NOT USE KEROSENE!!!! it will not cause any problems but using it in a road vehicle is a no no as the customs and excise if they catch you they can hang you out to dry as it is not duty paid (towed away you pay, stored you pay and fine guess what you pay) and has a yellow dye in it to identify it the same as tractor diesel is red,the most common form of kerosene is household heating oil a less common source is aircraft fuel, a solvant you can use with no risk of c&e aggro is petrol. my sedona is a common rail and as far as i know the fuel system is delphi which may be tied to lucas but i dont know for sure, as an alternative to cutting into pipes you could try a dieselveg filter heater which i believe is just wrapped around the filter and the wires connected up for a bit more info on solvants and ratios try bio-power the section on make your own fuel or go to u tube search for top gear and then look for vegtable oil for diesel and the clip of them making fuel and running an old volvo on it when i asked at my local kia stealership about veggie oil they said no but bio diesel is a different creature and any where selling bio diesel it must be up to a standard
bs summit or other so it is suitable for all engines but i have heard that peugeot have instructed their garages to check tanks for veggie and turn down warranty claims if found but this is just hearsay

keep the home fires burning but turn down the thermostat
