Have a customer who had temporary generators at facility ,done with them now and they have 300 gallons of #1 in a portable tank they have offered to give me free just have to haul it 60 miles home. Its about 4 months old, south Florida fuel. Any problems burning it in my stock 2014? Will the higher sulfur cause any issues? Should I blend it with #2 ?
I been adding 4 ounces of opti summer at each filling, my tank holds 65 gallon. Should I keep using it if I run the #1?
Or should I just pass and not risk it?

Thanks for the replies guys, going to hook up the flat bed trailer and go pick it up. They have a fork lift and will place the portable tank on the trailer and said just to bring it back to them once its empty.

Been told it's red#1 as the customer I am getting it from is the one that purchased the fuel ,and thats what they use in all their on site generators..... Guess i could just add the Power Service Diesel Kleen - gray bottle as a precaution anyway.? Do i need the trans fluid if I continue to use the opti lube summer blend as i have been?
Appreciate you guys!!!
