paraffin in larger than gallon cans

I've got an eberspacher heater for my motorhome, runs on diesel, but at almost a quid a litre i'm not happy running it on road diesel,red diesel is apparantly not recomended for these heaters, lots of problems running on red, and at a grand for the heater, if eberspacher say dont use red diesel, then i'm not gonna use red.they do say you can use paraffin tho,however it seems no where sells paraffin from a pump anymore, all i can get is a 4 litre bottle of the stuff for a daft price,i'm fitting a 45 litre tank for the heater fuel, so a couple of 25 litre drum of paraffin would do, but where do you get it from,bulk paraffin means 500 litres or more it seems when searching for paraffin in bulk, don't quite want that much.i'm near nottingham, but will travel to get the tank filled if there is a place that pumps paraffin left anywhere in the midlands, or on the way dfown south to dover as that's where i'm going in 2 weeks.

Right. Useful explanation of the nomenclature.

Agas coke up anyway, even on 28sec, bit they coke up faster on 35 sec, and may run into problems with gravity feed on cold weather.
