RE: BIO-Diesel fuel for an 85 300D

Gurnet, have you read the official alternative fuel thread? There's a slough of information there. I've been running my car on various blends of WVO and other petroleum products or ethanol and it's doing great so far at about 15,000 miles.

Ok, now why are we bringing up threads from a year ago? We have a great "Official" Alternative Fuels thread stickied at the top.

I would use it, but there are no bio-diesel service stations near me.

There are a bunch of internet sites out there that can tell you just about everything you want to know. Some people swear by it. The only problem is that veggie oil tends to congeal during low temperatures (much like diesel except more so).

Biodiesel is sold according to the ratio that the veggie oil is mixed with regular diesel. For example, 20% veggie oil and 80% diesel would be sold under the name "B20".
no dude.. not 20% veggie.. come on if you burn this stuff you should know

B20 is 80% dino diesel and 20% Biodiesel

Ok, I don't know why people are responding to a one year old thread, so I've frozen it.
