What Is Dyed Diesel?
Dyed diesel is untaxed diesel. Clear, on-road diesel is taxed in the U.S., and the tax revenue collected from fuel taxes is used to create, preserve, and maintain each state’s transportation infrastructure. So, when you drive on roads anywhere in the country, you need to use clear gas or diesel gasoline to power the engine.
Because dyed diesel is untaxed, it’s illegal to use it to fuel a vehicle that drives on roads. It’s specifically intended for off-road vehicles and machinery such as dump trucks, tractors, and generators that require diesel but aren’t accessing the road system.
The Benefits of Using Off-Road Diesel
- In terms of performance, dyed diesel is the equivalent of clear, on-road diesel. The only technical difference is the dye itself.
- The benefit of using off-road diesel is the price. Because the fuel doesn’t have a tax surcharge added to it, the cost is less than what you’d pay for clear diesel.
- Red diesel fuel is common in the agricultural and construction industries for this reason. Heavy machines use up a lot of fuel, and running them can be expensive. However, they’re better suited to diesel than regular gasoline because diesel fuel generates heat faster. This is important for machines that need to heat up to run properly.
- With dyed diesel, you can get the benefits of diesel while saving money. This type of diesel is one of the cheapest fuels on the market.
