just remember fuel oil and red diesel are two different things sometimes fuel oil where i live is red kero and then we have red diesel the other thing about red diesel is it does not always have the same additives in it as pump diesel but I know guys that run the crud out of it in the old 12v and the new 5.9 no problems

You misunstood me I meant that LSD is better for your engine than ULSD if you are running a 5.9.

Kerosine is #1 Fuel oil used in the winter because of the lower gelling point. (Also known as #1 Diesel) #2 is used in the summer and has more btu of energy in it.

I have never heard of anyone being checked here (new orleans) but then again, I dont know that many diesel drivers or people who have access to red diesel.

ORIGINAL: moconst

Here In Nprthern Ca they have checkpoints usually about twice a year. If the gov. fine isnt bad enuff, wait Till the IRS wants their backtaxes plus penalties. Had a friend that got popped for it, about 16k by the time it was done. Not worth the risk IMO
It would be a state matter IRS has no ball in the game.
