IIRC, there's very little difference between kerosene and #1, whereas #2 is this icky slimy stuff that is very hard to wash off of anything. I worked at a gas station for a few years. Because of my geeky nature, I did some reading about things like this. In addition to gasoline, we sold #1 (in cans), #2 (at the pump), red-dye #2 (no road tax, for tractors) and kerosene. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
