[T3] Red Diesel

[Tim Keohane <rheorojo@wildblue.net>]

<x-flowed>The "Red" in the diesel is a dye. It is for easy identification  
purposes for off road/agricultural use. The federal road tax is not  
applied/charged on that fuel. The dye is intended to provide easy  
identification by Troopers for violations. The actual fuel is the same  
from both pump handles. Imagine the lawsuits that would fly if the  
fuels were different and an engine failed or was damaged.

No I haven't and I hope I never do.  8-p

I suspect it would void my Jetta warrantee, which demands a certain
grade of fuel.
