I'm looking for info. about the fuel called Bio-Diesel. Will it hurt the engine, where can you get it, what does it cost, what mileage do you get. Any info. you can give will be appreciated. Thank you, Dale

MrsSpoolin 03-10-2005, 05:15 PM I can't help you with the answer to that, but there is a whole sub-forum here on bio-fuel pepperidge 03-10-2005, 05:43 PM go here... http://dieselplace.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=14 GREASE FIRE 03-10-2005, 06:32 PM It's really not hard to make, just takes some practice. If you live near a place where you can get free waste vegetable oil (most places in PA fall into this category) then you can make it yourself for about $.50/gallon. Lots of info on line about how to do so. Paul coriolis1 03-10-2005, 11:31 PM Did a little reading on a site where a guy brews his own - about 40 gallons per week. Quite a lot of chemicals - some apparently pretty caustic. I'd almost be afraid to have a setup like his - someone might call the cops on me thinking I was operating a crystal meth lab or something! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif However it does look like once you get the procedure for making it down, not too big a deal. Rockin 03-11-2005, 03:47 PM I'd love to see a local person doing a higher volume of bio for public or even co-op sale. Seems like I've read purchasing bio is about $3.00/gal for b100. Won't take much before that is cheaper than dino. I would buy it for a little more than dino if it were still available here just to promote it. Scott C 03-11-2005, 04:04 PM Right on rockin! I would buy it if they could set a co-op here in oklahoma. At 50 to 80 cents per gallon you would think that all the heavy equipment contractors would be using this stuff. | ||
