Crossword Genius

Jet fuel? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

coal

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'jet' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'fuel?' is the second definition.
(coal is a kind of fuel)

(Other definitions for coal that I've seen before include "Carbonaceous rock used as fuel" , "Carbonized vegetable matter" , "Char" , "slack" , "Three domestic fuels" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
