Got some diesel at the terminal Friday. Instead of pitching the receipt in the drawer, I read it. Guess what I bought: DOT Classification: T/T Diesel, Fuel, 3, NA, 1993 PG III. Description: HIGH Sulphur Dyed Diesel Fuel (Non-taxable use only, penalty for taxable use, not legal for highway use). ----------------------- Then there was a line for LOW Sulphur hwy Diesel, and 3 grades of gasoline, and one kerosene, plus one for all other products. At the bottom was a note (applicable to the 3 gasolines) that included this "....Bezene: 1.3% per gal max........." Looked in Webster's and Bezene wasn't listed. Went to www Google search engine under the subject Bezene and it had a site titled: "Reactions to Benzene Derivitaves". Just an FYI. ----------------------------- So, if your farm diesel is sold as mine is, with high sulphur content, you can quit worrying about additives to make up for low sulphur content cause it's high.
