Re: Red Fuel....Is it just dye'd or is it a lower grade of fuel as well.

It is just dyed for tax purposes.

Correct. But, it MAY have a higher sulpher content as well. IIRC, off-road fuel is allowed 2000ppm sulphur and on-road 500ppm (at least until ULSD comes out this summer [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]). From what I understand, some refineries only produce fuel that meets on-road specs and sell it as either. Lower sulpher in the crude oil or somethin [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
Higher sulphur in fuel equals potentially higher acidic deposits in yer crankcase oil.
Does 'Red Fuel' come up enough to be in FAQ's or become a sticky somewhere [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
