In Virginia, off road diesel fuel is dyed red,,
I will have to check it out. I like a good steakhouse. They are fewer and farther between than they used to be.
They aren’t clear, but they have a drain valve on the bottom to get water out. The filter elements also stain red so even if you switch back to road taxed fuel the evidence is still there.In Virginia, off road diesel fuel is dyed red,,
The fuel system on diesel vehicles have somewhere you can see the color of the fuel,,
WOOOO is you, if you get caught with red fuel in a road used vehicle,, MAJOR fines,,
During one hurricane, the state relaxed the "red fuel" law,, for emergency use,
It was only about a week then the red fuel ban was back in place.
Maybe the fuel filters are clear??
They used to carry a stick made of something or another around here that would pick up the colour of the fuel you were running. Don’t know if it would still work for standard trucks or not anymore(do diesels have the little ball in the filler neck) would still work for a big rig though.In Virginia, off road diesel fuel is dyed red,,

All off road diesel is died red. The check you by diping a white wick in your tank.In Virginia, off road diesel fuel is dyed red,,

Yes, but they have to catch with it in the tank. In theory you could run your truck on your farm for years using red fuel, then drain or switch the tank and run it on the road perfectly legal.
I said earlier heating oil is just off road diesel.#2 heating oil is red in the Northeast, too.
State now mandates a percentage of it gets mixed with biofuel. Those morons always have to screw with something! Ever since, my boiler misfires, fails to start, and pops the red safety button on occasion - usually for a week or so after a fill up, but not always - depends on what oil company I use.
Nothing sets your mood for the day better than waking up at 5am to a 45° house ... and screwing around trying to get the boiler to fire before you've had breakfast.
Ethanol in fuel was there to “help” with emissions but in reality it makes you burn more fuel. All this garbage in the name to be green you know what’s greener maintaining older vehicles/ equipment rather then making more new ones.
If one really looks at all the emmisions involved in ethanol production its pretty much government gimme to the corn states with no other positives.
I wonder how the pass their state inspections. The state department of Agriculture here in Illinois and Iowa would put the stop to that quick here. Years ago we had different sized nozzles on leaded versus unleaded gas pumps to. Most guys just punched out the filler neck on their vehicle though.
I do not agree with that.
I don't know why one would want to run kerosene in a diesel vehicle. Around here, diesel fuel is $1/gallon cheaper than kerosene. So some people burn road-taxed diesel fuel in their kerosene heaters.
How so, but before you respond read this first.
No state I am talking about have state inspections, but even if they did running taxed diesel for a few tanks flushes out the dyed diesel.
I do that in a torpedo heater, but it stinks.
