i might be wrong--but i believe most places--like truck stops dont actually have coloured diesel
but they do sell reefer fuel--but it is the same --just minus the taxes---
but yes it will be marked--and it is dyed red--and do not get caught with it in your tankTruckerNate Thanks this. -
AMEN to that.
-
The stickers that say "ultra low sulfur diesel" means it's on road. I'm pretty sure all diesel sold at gas stations is on road.
TruckerNate Thanks this. -
so this is confusing,
so is reefer fuel dyed? if it is, then it is off road diesel. -
yea it didnt really come out right when i typed it
off road diesel is dyes red--but i believe in the truckstops--in us--they only sell on road--even if you hit reefer button on pump
reefer fuel = no tax and is supposed to be dyed red -
up here, on road and off road is the same fuel oil.......only off road has the dye added, and no road tax.
I would have thought that is the case in the US as well. -
It is true here.
-
its same idea--only at truck stops--(i might be wrong here)--they just dont deal with the dyred fuel--its the same fuel just not taxed
but --i think it was when it was hurricane katrina--down south all you could get was red fuel---and there was a waiver for you to run that instead--but where i worked nobody told the shop--and they were draining out the fuel when they noticed it in the fuel filter---then i showed them the letter as they were draining my tanks into the reefer fuel tank -
so if it is same fuel, (clear) but not taxed, what is keeping you from putting it in the truck? If it is clear, and not taxed?
