Exclamation Advice....

If you do intend to run "Dyed Diesel"......you had better get some opaque primary fuel filters.....all a smart cop would have to do is open your hood and look.......no need to dip the tank!!!!

I use "off road" (or at least used to, before Bio-) Diesel in my tractor.....basically it's the "old tyme" HS Diesel that these cars were designed to use.....more BTU/gallon, therefore better mpg....so then you can honestly say that your 300SD gets 30mpg......
