I recall hearing that the Disneyland RR using a blend of Soybean oil and some Diesel. Out at OERM I used to bring out the used motor oil from my auto shop class in 55 gal drums so we could run it in the VC2 engine. It was a mixture of mainly used motor oil and some ATF, and I assumed it burned just fine.
