Around here you can get blended fuel in a 60/40 ratio of no. 1 and 2. Iv'e never heard in called that and doubt if it would be good to -40 below. How much does it cost?

it is being advertised as P40. I know that there is a P40 in a dyed fuel but haven't heard of any in a clear fuel. I am being told it's about the same price as #2. I was also told that this particular fuel is high in sulfur. I know nothing about it just wondering if anyone else is familiar with it. When i find out more i will post.

If it is high in sulfur, over 15 ppm, then it is not legal to use on the road.
Thats a Federal Law. Must be off road fuel. If it is over 15 ppm and dyed as it should be, you don't want to get caught with that in your tank or any traces of it on the road ways. BIG fines.

Just found out that this product is made in Canada right on the North Dakota border of Williston. It is a clear fuel for highway use. Apparently its just found in the northern part of the states:dunno Still researching:watchout
