Performance and pollutants features of Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine blends along with diesel have been examined in a single-cylinder compression ignition engine. Vegetable oils have higher viscosities than diesel fuel, and it greatly disturbs the performance, durability, burning and discharge features of the compression ignition engine. The tests were performed with different blend combinations of Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine oil as fuel. The experimental outcome indicates that brake thermal efficiency of the blend of 80% Jatropha Biodiesel and 20% of Mineral Turpentine is nearby to diesel fuel at 75% load. Carbon monoxides, hydrocarbons and emission were reduced to the considerable amount, whereas the oxides of nitrogen increase with increase in part load and reduced with 75% and full load operations. The specific fuel consumption of Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine blends found to be slightly upper than diesel fuel. The heat release rate and cylinder pressure of Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine blends were closer to diesel fuel. The test results recommend that Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine blends might stay a decent auxiliary to diesel fuel in the near upcoming and it can be concluded that Jatropha–Mineral Turpentine oil blends could be utilized in a conventional compression ignition engine with no alteration.
