The raptor thread got closed before I could ask this.

There were a couple of posts about how the raptor couldn't run Jet-A. I thought that Jet-A and diesel were interchangeable. The other "diesel" aircraft engines I've heard about (SMA and the one of the Diamond) were diesel engines and ran Jet-A, right?

So what happened with that Audi diesel engine that it couldn't run Jet-A?
