Dyed Diesel in El Dorado, Kansas

There are a few key things to understand about dyed diesel versus clear. While these two fuels are chemically identical, they have significant application differences that any user should familiarize themselves with for legal compliance reasons. In simple terms, clear diesel is more strictly regulated than dyed diesel, and failure to follow the rules regarding their use can come with serious consequences.

As we mentioned above, dyed diesel is chemically the same as clear diesel, though it may have a higher sulfur content. The main differences are that it is less strictly regulated, cannot be used in vehicles that operate on-road, and is treated with a red dye that distinguishes it from clear diesel. The dye is for tax and regulatory purposes and has no impact on the fuel performance.

If your operation is largely off-road, using dyed diesel can spell serious cost savings. However, the lower cost comes with strict usage compliance guidelines and requires detailed record-keeping.
