Canada Diesel

Im heading into Canada today and was wondering... Is there anything special I should be looking for at the pumps?

I'm from the Washington DC area, and the first fuel stop in Buffalo had their diesel labelled Diesel 2. What is the difference? And similar ratings in CA that I should be aware of before my next fill-up?

Sorry, I'm new to the d (and loving it) and could use the education.

Thanks in advance!

You'll probably get D1 (winterized diesel) right now, but other than that (and better lubricity with Canadian diesel fuel) there should be no notable difference.

Enjoy the trip!

Cheers

Thanks for the help. All went very well.

Dc to Philli to Toronto to Montreal to Philli to DC in 2.5 days. Average consumption was 37 with a rather heavy foot.

Thanks again!

Hope you had fun...T.O. and Montréal are both fun cities.

37 is pretty good mileage, especially with a heavy foot.

Cheers,
D.
