EP3000® Diesel Fuel |
(View MSDS) |
Co-op's regular diesel is produced specifically to meet the needs of today's diesel powered cars and trucks. Clear regular diesel is suitable for use in all diesel powered vehicles required to burn a taxable diesel fuel. It is also available with applicable dye by province for non-taxable use.
Co-op's regular diesel is supplied as a seasonal diesel. The cloud and pour points are adjusted seasonally to insure the correct viscosity when the fuel is produced and sold.
Regular diesel may still cause operating problems if used out-of-season. Although changes are made seasonally, precautions should be taken to avoid storage of diesel blended in the summer being used in cold winter temperatures. Mixing of summer and winter blended diesel can cause operation problems. Steps should be taken to assure that only winter grade seasonal diesel is in storage before the cold temperatures occur.
