Please provide some references to support your contention that "carbon deposits" , "soot", and "sludge" are the principal effects of diesel/jet fuel use in a gasoline engine. Is this something you "think" or do you have resaech to back up your information. I have personally seen nothing in the technical literature that supports your post. Everything I have read indicates it is the extremely high cylinder pressures/temperatures generated by the improper combustion of the deisel/contaminaed fuel, which damage the engine. If I am wrong I would be very interested in a better explanantion from a technically reliable source.
