I just filled up my truck and some fuel cans at the local truck stop, and didn't notice anything there. It foamed up just like normal but when I was dumping the cans into the tractor I noticed that this fuel is yellow colored and doesn't smell like gas or diesel. The pump was labeled #2 Diesel, but I've never seen this before. I need somebody to tell me this is just some new summer blend or something. Iv'e had enough bad luck with the truck for a while.

PS. After 25 miles the truck is running fine but it only took 15 gals to fill it so it's well diluted.

 

well around here we got red i woudnt worry diesel yellow is usually furnace oil last delivery truck probly had some left and dumped it if its a small truck stop maybe its left over winter diesel it usualy has stronger smell and kind of fluorecent like pee color to it well at least im talking about IRVING fuel see i used to work on delivery truck

 

This was at a larger Luvs truck stop but pee yellow describes it exactly.

 

the normal color of diesel were i run, yellow!!!!

 

yep. mines yellow too. You can see a green tint when you pour it sometimes.

 

Thanks for the good news, had me paranoid. I rarely see the color just fillin up the truck, but around here what I have seen was always clear with some tint in the sunlight. Everything is still up and runnin so you all must be right again.

 

around here the yellow fuel is for on road and you pay road tax with this fuel, the red is off road, no road tax, that's why they are different in color, also so the D.O.T. can check for illegal use by dipping your tank

 

Whats the fine or penilty if you get caught with "farm fuel"? And do they really check?

$2.28 gal here in Ky!!!!!!

 

Nevermind, I just read thru a whole crap-load of "Red Fuel" stuff!!!!!
