The off road fuel is dyed so that even the dumbest cop can tell the road tax has not been paid on it. Everything sold currently is ultra low sulfur. The problem is that the process that removes the sulfur from the crude also takes a lot of the lubricity out of the fuel. This is only a problem with SOME older pumps, mostly rotary like CAV and Roosa/Stanadyne/Delphi that are not manufactured (heat treat, etc.) to handle it. You can get away without adding a lubricity enhancer, and many do, however the odds will eventually catch up with them. It depends on how much you use the machine how soon the little savings of not putting in additive in ends up costing you a $1500.00 rebuild because the hydraulic head has seized. You don't want to get caught with dyed fuel in your truck either. BTO in next town over got caught with dyed fuel in his semi's TWICE. Fine was five digits, AND he had to pay back road tax on all fuel bought even though some &/or most of it went into the tractors. State tax authorities have NO sense of humor.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
