I was wondering if B20 would do any harm in my 04.5 LLY? I dont remember seeing anything about bio diesel in my owners manual. Anyone care to share the pros and cons ?

There is a whole section on biodiesel father down the forum if you look.

Sounds like is a pretty good deal. Some guys run %100, some only the %20 they sell at the pump. I wanted to get some but the nearest place that has it is in CO and they can't ship across the border to WY... Plus it would be more expensive. Which does matter with the amount of fuel I would need. Damn tanks are empty again... There goes another $9000...

Also I'm going to move this thread to the bio area of the forum.

I've been running B100 blended to B16 to B20 for at least 10K miles and haven't had any problems.

I've been running B20 for almost 10K miles and have had no issues. In fact my engine runs quieter. I've had to run #2 twice during the 10K miles and it definately gets a bit noisier on the #2 than on the B20. I get the same mileage on both and just as much smoke.):h
