Hi Richard,
Off-road fuel has a red dye to indicate road taxes have not been
paid. The diesel comes form the same stack as marine/off-road fuel. I
know it seems crazy that the higher taxed fuel is more expensive but
c'est le vie.
I suggest an additive with each fill, regardless of where you get the
diesel. I use Hawes but I've had good people recommend the Stanadyne
product as well.
cheers, Russ

With apologies for re-raising a previously discussed topic; my boat
is a 1985 37 with the original Yanmar 3HMF 27 hp; I went for my
annual diesel fill up and the pumps were out of order; so I had to
get diesel from a street gas station; although the cost was almost a
dollar per gallon cheaper, I noted that it was the "green" color
rather than the "red" color; so my question is do I need to put some
type of sulpher additive or something along those lines into this
fuel? I did motor with it for an extended time on Sunday with no
adverse effects; in addition to this question, what should I use for
the upcoming winter layup? many thanks
