I have no problem getting the red fuel, its paying for it thats problematic.
Thats the law.
Farm use implies heavy machinery, it's like saying you are using it on a farm yet using it on a ranch, semantics...What’s the law? I am 99% sure it is legal for me to use red diesel in my dozer and excavator. It seems like it would be illegal to buy it using an ag/timber card because doing so you are swearing the item purchased is for farm use and it’s not.
Nope, it's like one of those torpedo heaters rated for kerosene.While many people run heating oil in their diesel engines.. I think there's a difference. Cetane... Diesel Engine fuel has a minimum cetane rating. Does heating oil have a minimum cetane and lubricity requirement ? I doubt it.

A farmer buddy of mine says the price difference between dyed and clear isn't much anymore.
I ran diesel in a regular kerosene heater, worked fine but smoked a lot, perhaps with a Dan might burn hotter and smoke less, might smoke too much and build up too much doit.
