can I use heating oil?

Hi mdlwolf,

This is a great thread you started. Much of my confussion has been cleared up thanks to unput from the forum guru's.

I used to order 500 gallons of heating oil every month for a hungry Cummins turbo diesel generator at work. I spoke to manufacture reps of with the same questions, and found that for what ever reason, more sulfer in the fuel, was not detremental to the engine. I know this if vague. An MB mechanic, recently told me that MORE sulfur was ok.
I don't know, maybe.

I know if I had home heating oil at my house, I know my thoughts would ever be thinking of pumps & hoses. but hmm, would it be worth the risk?
