In this day and age, diesel is a commonly used fuel. The fuel itself is created from refined crude oil and biomass materials and it is named after the type of engine it is made for – diesel engines. Diesel fuel is currently used to power all sorts of machinery and equipment that can be found throughout a variety of different industries. It is a fuel source for freight trucks, delivery trucks, buses, boats, farm equipment, construction equipment, military vehicles, certain cars and generators.
On-Road Vs. Off-Road Diesel
Two types of diesel fuel that are currently available are on-road diesel and off-road diesel. So what exactly is the difference?
- On-Road Diesel: On-road diesel, also known as clear diesel since it is not dyed, is the type of diesel fuel that is available at local gas stations. Standard cars, trucks and trailers all use on-road diesel fuel.
- Off-Road Diesel: Off-road vehicles such as tractors that are used on farms, earthmovers or standard construction vehicles all use diesel fuel. Generators also use off-road diesel fuel. This type of diesel is made with a red dye as a way to caution people from putting it in the wrong type of engine.
