Does red diesel damage your engine?

It will not damage your engine but it is illegal to on the road. The fuel is dyed for use off road. Off road Diesel is not taxed like on-road diesel. Also, the newest on-road diesels require ultra low sulfur fuel, and red is not always low sulfur. It will wipe out your particulate filter, which is expensive (and won't be warrantied). Often red diesel is straight #2. So it needs additive if it's much below freezing.


Other than the dye what is the difference between off road and on road diesel?

On-road diesel is taxable under IFTA (but still may be used for non-taxable purposes, such as refrigerated units, Proheat units, equipment, etc.), whereas red dyed diesel is not. The red dyed diesel leaves a much darker exhaust emission, which will be easily identifiable to any DOT/Motor carrier enforcement officer.
