We have No 1 through at lease No 6. Their could be heavier diesel oil out their but I have never heard of it. I'm sure each one is based on some unit of heat, viscosity, or something. No 1 diesel is the lightest and I have always heard that it cannot be burned directly in diesel motors. It's simply to hot. No 2 diesel is what we burn in the our vehicles and machinery when it's above about -10 F. A mixture of No 1 and No 2 down below that down to about -30 F. Below that I don't know what they use. No 3 diesel gels out at about 20 F. I know No 3 is a higher BTU diesel and that we are suppost to get more horsepower per gallon. If my SVO and No 2 diesel mixture was indeed close to No 3 then it would burn very well as long as the temp was above 30 to 40 F. That suits my purpose very well.
