old engine oil in my discovery it may smoke a little but these cunts bang on about recycling so thats what i'm doing. I'm a mechanic too so plenty of old engine oil going free. Never heard its illegal either.

my bro has used it for years we got stopped using a police exit onto a motorway(near newport essex way) opened the boot and there was 60 litres in the boot,the tank had just been filled by the fuel bowser on site,luckily they were just about to finish there shift and said fuck off,if you get stopped again we never stopped you,lucky that time,then one day in brum he went to a garage that sold it,no tax,filled the drums in the boot,but the guy in the kiosk noticed he had no tax and there was plod sitting over the road wnet out of his way and told plod about tax,they came over saw him filling drums with cherry got someone down there to dip tank,took car and he had to pay £500 that day,if caught again cars crushed and back tax to be payed,and its NOT a myth about car smoking more it does,as theres water/dye in it and thats what causes it to smoke more,just change filters regular,

The only difference between red and white diesel is that diesel is white naturally after refining and blending, diesel thats destined to become red then has a dye added to distinguish the two and also to stain the tank. It certainly doesnt make a car smoke more or less as its the same stuff, just a different colour

A friend of mine uses red diesel but puts blue dye in it and says if they dip his tank know the fuel is tampered with but can do nothing as its not red. I know he does this but im not sure where he stands as iv heard some haulage companys dye there fuel for theft reasons.

they are all the same, the only difference is the DUTY TAX or should i say dye.
