How much does a gallon of 6 fuel oil weigh?

The density of Number 6 oil (Bunker C fuel) varies by
temperature and manufacturer. Because it is a residual fuel oil
(what's left over after better grade oils are removed) and can
contain varying amounts of water and other impurities, the oil from
different manufacturers are different densities.
On average, Number 6 fuel oil has a density of around .98 grams
per mL.
One US gallon is 3785 mL, which would be 3709.3 grams, or 3.71
kg.
3.71 kg = around 8.2 pounds.
