A low-emissions diesel fuel comprises fungible aviation kerosene grade 55, 50-300 ppm detergent, 25-500 ppm lubricity additive and a bimetallic, fuel soluble platinum and cerium fuel borne catalyst (e.g., 0 1-2 0 ppm platinum COD and 5-20 pmm cerium oleate). The fuel can be used as is or in the form of an emulsion A method of reducing the emissions of pollutants from a diesel engine, comprising running the engine on a fuel as defined. Retarding engine timing can further reduce NOx and the use of a diesel particulate filter and/or diesel oxidation catalyst can provide further reductions in carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and particulates
