In the fine over taxed state of California all Diesel is the same with different dyes added. The off road is not taxedd for highway use and the fine can be as much as $10,000 if caught cheating. How they catch you depends on how much you talk and the other contractors talk. Way too many talkers out there for me to risk it. WVO or Biodiesel is a better risk.

I was in wisconsin last year and all I could get was ULSD. After a while I noticed my fuel gauge never showed full even with a full tank. The whole trip back to Alaska the gauge got worse every fill up. When I got home I filled my tank with pre 2007 diesel and the gauge went right to the top. So for some reason the float wasn't floating good enough.
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.
