DOT hates this one weird trick!
OneSkepticalOwl@reddit
SLPT: use the OEM filter as a decoy after you make it look like it is in use and run the real cherry filter hidden
denonemc@reddit
IRS too
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
When you get audited, always ask, is paying off my auditor tax deductible or do I have to pay cash?
denonemc@reddit
No receipt necessary thank you
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
Dot loves it when you run red & have a $100 taped to the fuel filter...
TheRiftsplitter@reddit
What is this anyways, I haven't seen it at the pumps
Amestopmodel@reddit
Off road dyed diesel.
delawder29@reddit
👀, drive and don't look back lol
easymacmac85@reddit
It matches the color of your panties, are they off?
Traditional_Ad_1360@reddit
Cheap till you get caught.
IBringTheHeat2@reddit
Why do DOT dip tanks if they can just peak at your fuel filter?
mvamv@reddit
Not all fuel filters are transparent.
MordoNRiggs@reddit
You can get a fuel filter without a clear bowl.
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
But then how will I know if it clogs, or if if sucking air from the tank?
MordoNRiggs@reddit
Well, it'll stop running, or run terribly. I've serviced many diesels without a clear fuel bowl. Most modern ones have it. They also didn't have a pickup fuel pump. Some are such a pain to get the air out.
Environmental-Pear40@reddit
They do both.
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
I've wondered this....
kali4niakid@reddit
I went to a pilot recently and it had red diesel does that mean they were fuckin wit it
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
We had dyed fuel delivered to the farm. Shit was tan colored
LucHighwalker@reddit
Did the pump say "for off road use only"?
kali4niakid@reddit
Didn’t see anything but I wasn’t lookin either. I was running down the interstate when it happened can’t remember where but I remember it because I just learned about the red diesel on a YouTube video and then boom and fuel stop or 2 later middle of the night, and I see red as I pull out the nossle. I thought, that can’t be good. And kept it truckin
LucHighwalker@reddit
Yeah, you probably accidentally went in the "off road only" lane. It's very common in rural areas of the country since farmers use that stuff. It's the same fuel so not gonna do any damage to the truck or anything, it's just dyed red to indicate that it's tax exempt. Hefty fines cause it's considered tax evasion. So just don't get pulled in for an inspection until a few full fuel cycles.

What model Kubota is this?
dbxbeat@reddit
Damn now I want a zero turn mower with an x15
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
Gonna have a tail swing a mile long. But the 0-60 should be good
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
I didn't know Kubota came with an X15 cummins. Thought they were all kubota engines
TruckerBiscuit@reddit
Stick to the cherry flavored diesel. The lemon flavored milk you find on the back row at the truck stop is disappointing at best.
W1D0WM4K3R@reddit
That's because you need to wait for it to ferment. Once it's a nice brown tea colour it's ready
Independent_Leg7358@reddit (OP)
I found it a little salty personally
WolfDigles@reddit
It’s an acquired taste.
Silver-Tea-8769@reddit
It's still too expensive!
Jmersh59@reddit
Remember the guy you probably voted for is the reason you're running red and talking a chance of getting fines. But we are WINNING BIGLY, also Remember if he didn't start a war you wouldn't have to do this,three more years 😉.

I didn’t vote for Netenyahu
Vast-Yak-8713@reddit
It’s great until DOT pulls you in the inspection bay
GroundbreakingSir386@reddit
Keep like 5-7 empty bottles of fuel treatment in your truck and tell them it’s fuel treatment is why it’s red
EnoughLuck3077@reddit
I used to do this in my personal when I was younger. Kept a few empty bottles of Marvel Mystery Oil in the bed just in case. Was never checked though. Probably saved a few thousand in fuel cost over the years I had that truck
Jablothegreat@reddit
These prices got my truck so worried, I had to give it a little Pepto. That's why it's got that pink hue.
AKWV80@reddit
You get what you pay for
Environmental-Pear40@reddit
Ah, the forbidden code red diesel.
Dagobian_Fudge@reddit
Way more sexual to dip your tank
yes-disappointment@reddit
now it matches your engine color.
