Kerosene heater---No kerosene?

My dad was told by a friend,and it works.Use 3 gallons of diesel and 2 gallons pump gas and it will cut down the fume/stink.Sounds crazy but it does work providing this is a "FORCE AIR HEATER" salamander/torpedo/space heater my point is they have a lot of names just trying make sure we are talking about the same thing.the ones that are about 2 1/2 feet long and 10"diameter that has an electrical cord for the blower.If not this one I would not use that mixture I posted.
