Re: Diesel fuel red or green
Bought 400 liters of dyed diesel last week at the dealer. Saved about 25 cents per liter over pump prices.

Re: Diesel fuel red or green
Several local stations have set aside a special fuel oil pump with red-dyed furnace fuel, which I use in my 2006 Kioti DK45. There is usually a line-up to buy this in 5 or 10 gal lots (often going into red gasoline jugs!). The price difference is roughly $.23 to $.25 per liter vs. the green road diesel...so call it $1.00 per gal.

Re: Diesel fuel red or green
if your wanting to be technical. you can run red-dyed diesel on road. You are required to keep up with how many road miles you travel and file paperwork with a check for the separate road taxes.
many farmers do this so they dont have to keep 2 types of diesel. As part of the CDL logs its easy to capture road miles.
As a farm you have to pay quarterly taxes so many just work it into there normal tax payments.
For the avg guy, more hassle than its worth.Steve - TC33D 4x4 FEL, dual rear remotes with toys

Re: Diesel fuel red or green
Go for it! Nothing like that price.
I have run mine on heating for years with 'on road' from time to time. Can not see any difference in performance and with a mere 20 hp driving a 60" snow blower I would know.
Also i drive it up and down very hilly roads that would let me know if there was any power difference.
I also use additives, mainly for gelling prevention as I have been caught a few times, nothing worst than bleeding at -20!
