I have been told that home heating oil is disel fuel with red die in it. My home heting oil bill actually says "died diesel" on it So What? Well I just bought a New Holland 3cyl diesel skid steer to use around the homestead and it would be much easier to pump out of my home heating oil tank than it would be to take a bunch of 5 gal cans up to the gas station. So I called my home heating oil supplier and asked. "Can I use your home heating oil in my Diesel Equipment?" "Hek NO!, well wait a minute, Heay Bill, talk to this guy" "Hi Bill Can I use your home heating oil in my Diesel Equipment" "Hek YES, I do it alla time! It's the same stuff you get outta the pump cept it's died." You see my confusion. What do you think? By the way, I bought this skid steer to replace my broken 63' JD 1010 front end loade/backhoe that I can't find parts for. I bought it with a bucket and a set of forks. And can't say enough good about it. The only negative is that it tears up the yard. Jon, Maryland
