Red fuel.... no tax and it can be high sulfur with addition lubricating qualities, but it doesnt have to be. Here it used to be luck of the draw. Fuel from the Somerset refinery used up to 40% refined waste oil. Fuel from Catlettsburg was pre-2006 low sulfur, and from the surplus trade old style high sulfur but it might be 20 years old.

Now the jobber uses the low sulfur from Catlettsburg enriched with soy oil to B20 in the summer and B10 in the winter.
