Diesel fuels are blended for beast seasonal performance but that means if you're purchasing diesel fuel from a station along the road the fuel you're pumping into your vehicle is properly blended for that time of year assuming the station is selling a high enough volume to provide reasonably fresh fuel. That has very little to do with farm fuel which might have been pumped into a storage tank 2 years ago and no one knows if it's #1, #2 or something in between. #2 diesel fuel will deliver more power to the ground than #1. Will it be noticeable? Probably not unless you're operating right on the edge, i.e. tractor pulling, etc. Better overall performance will come with heavier diesel fuel (not much kerosene in it). Better winter starting and resistance to jelling and icing will come with more kerosene, i.e. lighter fuel. I doubt if any of the snake oil being sold over the counter will get you any more power. Although, I always order #2 Premium Disesel Fuel. Then I do whatever is necessary to make sure my tractor tank has #1 or even Artic (if available) in it and well circulated prior to the arrival of winter temps.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
