Both the piston and turbine engines were run on avgas. The fuel consumption of the GE J85 Turbojet is the same at idle as the Pratt & Whitney R2800 radial uses at 100% power. Here is a Youtube video of a C-123 coming in for a landing at a remote airstrip. One more C-123 video of the Provider doing takeoffs and landings, two of which were not very good.
