What is Red Diesel 

Red diesel is also commonly known as gas oil EN 590, The name “red diesel” comes from the fuel dye that is added to red diesel in order to distinguish it from regular diesel. If you were to add red diesel to the fuel tank of your prohibited road vehicle, even long after use, the tell tale signs of the red dye staining your fuel tank would alert the authorities to its past use if they were to check your fuel tank.
