There is supposed to only be ULSD used on the road except in Alaska.Looks like from what I read on Wikipedia that there is still a small amout of 500ppm(which is low sulphur diesel) being made and can be used in Alaska until 2010.I think you can use 500ppm diesel in a farm tractor in some places if you could buy it somewhere,and it should be dyed red for farm use if its still around.Most being made now is 15 ppm ULSD which is a lot less than 500ppm low sulphur diesel.
This seems like one of the worst scams ever to come out.The ULSD doesnt lubricate as well,is thinner,and lowers fuel economy.If you had the old type of diesel,and burned it in anything road or anywhere,if it got up in the air 50 ft would probably be conditions just right,wind blowing it or something,then it would fall back down somewhere,and what?So sulphur is an ingredient to acid rain,does not mean diesels were causing acid rain,or how do they prove they were?It looks like a way to put more pollution controls on a truck engine and has nothing to do with pollution at all.Also trains didnt have to burn ULSD yet.Supposedly they do,yeah right!It looks like people that make pollution devices for diesel engines,which suck,got the EPA to do this to justify hanging a bunch of this junk on a diesel engine.I bet if a Railroad had to put that junk on a locomotive it would never have happened.
