Not sure about that one. But I would certainly go for ' ignition oil', as 'light oil' seems to have a broader meaning.
John Fenz May 16, 2009:
Should light oil be included as an alternative? Single example, of many such, found in the posted reference link

Input
Spark ignition: Gas, e.g. natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, and bio gen-gas (producer gas).
In recent years multi-fuel engines have appeared on the market.
Dual fuel: Gas and ignition oil (light oil)

ignition oil/light oil

Specifically with reference to plants generating energy from biomass

From:

"Spark ignition: Gas, e.g. natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, and bio gen-gas (producer gas).

"In recent years multi-fuel engines have appeared on the market.
Dual fuel: Gas and ignition oil (light oil)
In recent years, engines have been developed to use gasses with increasingly lower heating values and higher contents of impurities.

High-pressure dual-fuel engines usually need deNOx equipment. Some soot is emitted due to ignition oil.

Dual fuel engines:
• The trend is towards less **ignition oil**, less soot and less NOx.

To my mind, "kindling oil" is somewhat archaic, and reserved for use in reference to the oil used when starting lamps.
