If it's refined gasoline, it's a problem for SURE. If it's diesel it will take a LOT of directly applied heat..... You know....I wonder....What is the stability period for that much "fuel" of any sort? There comes a time in the life of the stuff when it either starts to break down or it develops enzymes that are like harmful additives (IIRC). It's in an area that's quite cold in winter....I wonder if it's HEATING OIL? Whats the explosive factor of that stuff?

Home heating oil is essentially the same diesel oil run in cars and trucks. The taxation scheme on the product is different. The oil for one of the markets is dyed to distinguish it. The aim is to prevent truckers from evading the tax by using home heating oil.
