You'd turn down free fuel? I am at the end of my "dieselgas" stockpile so now I will have to start buying it! It has been a good run!I ain't puttin that stuff in my 72amgm35a2 !
Let you in on fire resistant hydraulic fluids(Like Skydrol for aircraft) it still burns. Thats how we used to get rid of contaminated fluid, burn it in the boiler to generate steam. It' is fire resistant, not fire proof, you should see it burn.
The best reason not to use it is because it will cause regular Orings to swell up.
Look for a product called "Water Glycol Oil" it is used in aluminum and zinc die cast machines and is a water based hydraulic oil, and no matter how hard you try it will not burn. It will work in any standard hydraulic system and is red to pink in color depending on how much water is in the mixture.From time to time we run into an application where they want fireproof oil. We have not found an oil yet that works for this.
There are systems out there that run on water.

BTW- might want to check you state laws- after the thread on the fella in NC getting pulled and fined for WMO in his tank, I found out SC requires a fuel blenders license. I now have one, easy to get and free. If I ever get pulled, as long as I don't have off road diesel in the tank, I just have to show my blenders license. FYI
