Oil & Fuel No tax diesel fuel

[Donnyj]

To be honest, I have never run into that. It has always fit fine. I use regular diesel cans with no problem. The nozzle where I go looks to be the same size as a regular gas nozzle. Maybe a little bigger, but not so much that it would cause any problems.

Try another diesel pump, you were at the large truck pump with a nozzle that is designed to fill 100-200 gal tanks.

Some chain stations put the on road diesel pump in the middle of gas pumps. All have smaller nozzles.

All the truck islands will have large nozzles & a daughter pump on the other side wired together.

I just use a RED plastic fuel (gas) can and NAPA has a wide oval mouth funnel I use until I can afford to put a full fledged filling station on my lot. And some PowerService diesel additive. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I put a big permanent marker D on it for reference.

There are limitations. Farmers are specifically excluded from claiming a federal fuels tax credit on diesel, but are allowed to claim one on off-road gasoline.

Can you provide some of the names of the stations that sell off road diesel. I am in the Tigard, Beaverton & Scholls area.

Thanks,

Diesel cans are yellow, not red and are labeled as such. Better safe than sorry, you wouldn't want to accidently put the wrong stuff in either of your vehicles.

I bought 2 5 Gal yellow diesel containers at a local JD dealer for $8.00 each to carry the valuable "liquid gold".

Somebody put water in my brothers red gasoline can for his murray lawn tractor.
He ran out of gas in the lawn tractor grabbed up the red can and filled the tractor tank.

Guess the water was color blind LOL

Buying un taxed diesel should be just like any other tax exempt item using a vendors license.
