You can't

But there are 3 primary colours which are red blue and green, by adding green dye the colour would turn yellow, howevver more green the better as some diesel is green tinted due to aditives during manufacturer.

It quite easy to do but make sure the dyes are oil based and not synthectic as it will cripple your engine.

It is capable as long as it is off road use only.

Off road diesel does not have road taxes added to the cost.
