If you are transporting the fuel in containers that are not your fuel tanks, you can carry up to 1000 pounds of it. That's around 133 gallons.
If the fuel is in your tanks, you can carry as much as they'll hold.
119 gallons.500 gallons if agriculture use.1000 gallons if special harvesting
Some developments in the field of fuel for the transport industry include bio-diesel fuels that are partly man-made and not organic in nature. Cleaner burning fuels are being developed all the time. Many new trucks in the transport industry also have the introduction of DEF that burns along with diesel for a cleaner environment. DEF stands for Diesel Efficient Fuel.
YES! You're allowed to transport 1000 lbs. of diesel fuel before it requires a CDL and hazmat endorsement. A gallon of diesel fuel weighs between six and seven pounds.. with 300 gallons, you'd have between 1800 and 2100 lbs.
Diesel fuel is Hazard Class 3. Without a Hazmat endorsement, you would be limited to a total of 1,000 lbs. of diesel fuel.. A gallon of diesel fuel weighs approximately 7.5 pounds (it varies, dependent on the API weight), so you'd be looking at around 134 gallons (give or take). Without a CDL, the total weight of that vehicle could not exceed 26,000 lbs., nor could that vehicle have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of over 26,000 lbs.

Diesel engines run on diesel fuel. Gasoline will destroy a diesel engine.
What is hho
You can try to repair a small leak in a diesel fuel tank without taking off and welding by using specially made putty.
The ignition temperature of diesel fuel typically ranges between 210 to 300 degrees Celsius (410 to 572 degrees Fahrenheit). This is the temperature at which diesel fuel can ignite without an external flame or spark. Factors such as the specific formulation of the diesel and environmental conditions can influence this value.
If the non diesel fuel is drained out without getting to the engine there is a good chance there wil be no damage. For more information see the answer to the Related Question shown below.
Up to 1000 lbs. before a CDL and hazmat endorsement is required.
Yes, diesel is a bio fuel
