Neither does BioD. It is purchased from a card lock and has taxes
paid, so the revenooor would be pounding sand to get cash out of me.
AS long as I keep one gallon of diesel in the mix, there is no way
they could figure I had not paid taxes for the tank of fuel.

if you need more money in the projects just so badly, i'd have no opposition
to this as long as a simple mechanism actually exists. (i suspect you just

Feds give an exemption for upto 400 gal per quarter of the year. Some states
follow this. Arkansas requires that I pay $0.185/gal tax. YMMV in your state.

Probably depends on which government you're talking about -- there are
at least Fed. and State taxes, and local taxes on fuel some places,
I'm guessing. I thought I read somewhere that OK has a form for
declaring and paying the fuel tax for fuel that you make yourself, but
I could be dreaming that
actually, my research says the gov considers it a fuel additive for
personal use and you do not have to pay taxes. That is 2nd hand from a

His veggie bumper sticker "gave him away." Then, surely, they checked his
fuel and found, shownuff, soy oil, not tax-paid Diesel.
