I recently received a large amount of kerosene from a friend for free. But it’s the red kind, I have been told several times to not use it that it stinks, But is that the only reason, Is there anythign serious I should be worried about by using the red type kerosene?

you can use that kerosene with no problems, the red is a dye that is added to regulate use,(tax free such as farm or off road uses) but wont hurt anything,(diesel is treated this way also) good luck

High sulfur content is why it stinks. Make sure that you have adequate venting. You don’t want this stuff in a stand alone heater in your house. You don’t want to be breathing this crap.
