The way to find out what (if any) maintenance penalty is incurred by using a different fuel from the normally available type is to read the Fight Manual.

The requirements for different aircraft/engine installations can vary. Putting forward a "one size fits all" answer is incorrect.

However, if the fuel type in question doesn't appear in the aircraft documentation then don't try to use it.
