Yeah, there was a great tank on ebay one time. On a trailer, pretty and
stainless, labeled Jet A (or B). Great for those cross country trips with
our vws. :) It was only 100 or 200 gal too.
Furnace/heating oil is, 99% of the time straight #2. Sometimes it'll be
a blend of #1 and #2 for flowability, just as it is in road fuel. STOVE oil,
is more of an East coast thing and it's #1. This is the info I got from our
local distributor.
