My customer has a 3500 gallon tank. He is willing to order the fuel. I talked to a refiner in the socal desert today and I can buy a truckload 7400 gallons for 2.60/gallon today 4-6-05.
I still need a tank for another 4000 gallons.
Anyone have access to a tank and meter.
I think there is a 1.00 per gallon tax refund for business unless Im wrong.
Of cousre we need trucks to fill. My customer uses about 3k gallons per month in his trucks.

Too bad your so far away. Ive been thinking about doing this, but I dont want to get tangeled up with the legal crap when it comes to storage and "selling" of fuels.
Jim at Lee Escher Oil Co? Or Bob at IWP?
Keep in mind that Biodiesel storage is a 6 month deal.......Maybe not a problem for ya.
PC, there is some news of Bush's tax rebate being eaten by the oil companies. Ide check with Bob at IWP for sure. It would be an extra sweet deal to get the BD at 30 cent discount to petrol diesel.
Sorry, I dont have a tank, or meter. You might try a certain fertilizer store here in Temecula if you want to buy one though..............
Good luck, sounds like a good idea.

I dont mean to speak for PC, but Im sure it is B100. Keep in mind that 10 gallons per every tank makes a nice B25 or so. Some have run the max on B100, and it works fine. Ask Super Diesel. I believe he reccomends it.
PC, I looked into a 4kgal tank......looks to be about $1/g.
ouch.

I spoke to ITL in Cudahy, CA (SoCal) close to 710 fwy and they sell B20 at the pump for $2.66/gal. Price gap between Dinodiesel and Biodiesel is very narrow here in SoCal and in some areas they are the same:confused: :eek: . B100 only comes in 5gal pails @ $26.00each :rant: .
