There is no difference between on/off road fuel except the dye. that is how the goverment tells if you have paid you'r road use taxes, try getting caught with a dye in you'r tank on the hiways and see what the fine can be. a diesel will smok a bit untill it warms up after that should have a light brown haze. some people think if they crank up the infector pump they will have more power. not really just burning more fuel. #2 fuel will jell in extreme cold, to keep from jelling you can use an additive or mix with #1 fuel or home heating fuel which is #1 and cheaper than additives, I would use an additive to keep the fungus from growing in the tank if stored for long periods of time .......hope this helps oh if you do get a jelled tank just pull it inside a heated garage or shop it will thaw overnight.............Jer
