| Re: Diesel fueling system for CUT owners Very nice job. I only see one thing wrong in that picture - your tractor is way too clean. Now that you're fueled up go get it dirty!

of your tractor when it was still shiny? I used to do that with my former
rental tractors. The problem with a new machine is you feel bad about
putting scratches in the paint.
Thx for the support, guys.

I have contacted several local fuel suppliers about off road diesel, they have a minimum delivery of 50 gals. None of them will fill a tank I bring to them.
Presently I only use 10-15 gal/month, I am about to put a pump on my heating oil tank!

The new stuff is called Ultra low Sulfur.
Off road diesel is dyed red and it's illegal to run it on any vehicle that drives on the roads, streets, or hwy. Ultra-low sulfur diesel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The only thing you should have is a releif valve if there is a problem with air supply or in a fire you will have a bomb with out it.
