Ive seen 4 distinct colors of diesel and I’m curious if there is anything notable about them.
1. Almost clear
2. Light blue
3. Green
4. Yellow
The blue and green are not very pronounced, the yellow however sometimes looks like a dehydrated person’s pee.
Y’all ever seen anything besides those 4?
What do the different colors of diesel mean?

Im gonna guess it's the additive package. @AModelCat might know

Clear/blue/green are the normal colors. Yellow to dark yellow means its got a very high bio content in it which you can normally smell especially in Oregon. And like @okiedokie said if its red dont use it. Thats off road fuel and you’ll get huge fines if caught with it in your tanks.

Is the higher bio content bad for the engine or mileage? -
High dollar fine.okiedokie Thanks this. -
They sell red fuel at the town pumps in montana. They will also randomly pull u ever to check your tanks. Its 70cents cheaper than regular diesel if ur feeling adventerous
okiedokie Thanks this. -
They'd have fuel checks at jump scales. Red stays in your tanks for a long time.
