Allen,
Following your diesel fuel woes. I get mine from Pan Handle Co-op's local dealer in Burns, Pan Handle gets theirs from the Cenex refinery. As I understand it from the fuel contract meeting I went to in January regular off-road diesel (ULSD) has no additives for lubricity, the customer has to add it (PS or Howells). What they call "Ruby" (premium ULSD) has 2% soy diesel added to provide the lubricity. The ruby costs .03 more per gallon> I've been using the ruby since I took over the farm in 97, seems to give me a little better power, higher cetane value and probably cleans the injectors more (better) than reg. diesel. BTW I contracted for 2.31/gal for Mar-may delivery and 2.34 for May-Aug. HTH
