You can also just dissolve a shitload of styrofoam plates and cups in a 1:1 mixture of rubbing alcohol and gasoline, if you don’t live near a gas station with a kerosene pump. You can start very wet wood that way, but I wouldn’t use it to cook.
Wait so when people bought red diesel they were buying kerosene, which is in fact diesel but red?
Edit:
Kerosene and diesel are both petroleum fuels from the molecular components of crude oil. Kerosene is extracted from crude oil first, then diesel, as kerosene has a lower boiling point than diesel. Diesel is a reddish colour while kerosene is colourless

Kerosene is diesel with red dye added, fyi. Because it’s taxed differently, you can run it in a diesel engine but if you get caught you’re toast.

Shit, had it backwards. I don’t have anything that uses either so it was from (bad) memory. Sorry.
It’s all good. I got curious after I asked and searched it up.
Have a great day!
