Spark ignition engines can run on kerosene, but not cold start on it. So they generally have a small gasoline tank for starting, a fuel changeover valve, and a means of draining the carb. Also, usually, more heat to the manifold and reduced compression ratio. I’ve seen tractors and small engines set up for kero, but never knew about outboards.
