No. 2 heating oil and diesel fuel are the same except the fuel may have additives for engines. No. 2 is heavier fuel than No. 1. I wouldn't use it in a kerosene heater. It may burn "okay" but it is more likely to soot up and will burn a little dirtier. And for a pot burner I have seen No.2 not flow in very cold weather because it is too thick when cold.
