My new Massey calls for Ultra Low Sulfur Fuel. I drove around the other day looking for it. Finally found a pump marked as such. Is this super important? It's a 30 mile round trip to get it. I buy 20 gallons at a time which lasts about a month or so. Is all diesel ultra low sulfur and they just don't mark the pumps?

Most diesel they make now days is ULSD [ ultra low ]. Even the [ non-road tax ] off road diesel is usually ULSD. Only difference is that it has had a red dye added to it. There are probably areas in the USA where this is not the case, and you can probably get a local supplier to get you something different if you use a lot of it...... They came around and put stickers on the pumps when the mandated ULSD for on road use, but some pumps might not have them...

All diesel sold legally in the U.S.A. for highway vehicles is ULSD by Federal Law.
Just buy what is available at the nearest service station.
