I paid like 8.50 a gallon for some at Home depot, anybody know where you can buy it at the pump or in bulk near Keller/Southlake, thanks for any tips, heating the man cave in the barn is getting expensive.

What type of heater do you have. I have some bullet style kerosene heaters that run off of diesel too.

Bought it at Home Depot for 140.00, says to use number one kerosene only or you can get fumes and smoke.

Jet Fuel type A basically Kerosene, or filtered #1 oil cleaned up to higher specifications including very fine filtering (through diatomaceous earth) and a water removal step.
Kerosene is #1 oil which has been filtered to clean it up. Sold at ridiculously higher prices in stores as "lamp oil" this material may have deodorants or fragrances added. A traditional name for kerosene is "coal oil", though it is in fact a petroleum product and is not made from coal.
#1 fuel oil is more refined than #2 oil, has a lower pour point (or gel point or waxing point), is less viscous, has a higher septane rating and contains fewer BTU's per gallon than #2 heating oil.
Diesel fuel used in diesel powered vehicles and some other engines, is basically #2 home heating oil. But in the U.S. and other countries, home heating oil has dye added in order to distinguish it from un-taxed or lower-taxed fuels from un-dyed and higher-taxed diesel fuels used for over-the-road vehicles.

To think I used to drive old 50 chevy pu back when I was 13-15 yrs old to my aunt's store there at Foster rd and new sulphur springs rd and buy a gallon and half in picky pear burner ten put as much air into it as it would hold. Then off to pasture to burn pear for cows. Just burning it and leaving it stand wan't bad but if I had to chop it down and load it ..That long bed on that pu better be full and falling off when done. Like HOLDEM said that Coal oil didn't cost but a feww cents back then.....Andy
