    P40??

    If it is high in sulfur, over 15 ppm, then it is not legal to use on the road. Thats a Federal Law. Must be off road fuel. If it is over 15 ppm and dyed as it should be, you don't want to get caught with that in your tank or any traces of it on the road ways. BIG fines. Rick H...

    Can I do this?

    For me the choice is.... Fiddle with using Straight Veg oil or a blend of it with Petrol, or make Biodiesel and put it in and go! Only thought I had about a heated system is so that I could run 100% Biodiesel year round. I can push 60% Biodiesel in 10 deg F temps with no problem. Old Body Style...

    why is there a diff between being cold and warm?

    You guys missed that part about "Sounds Different". Have you disconnected or removed the Exhaust Back Pressure Valve yet? It will close off the exh during warm up and make the engine sound different and cause poor performance. Rick H...

    what can my truck tow?

    With those gears and tires your kind of stuck towing in 4th at 2800 rpm. If you are towing over weight and anything remotely for hire and something happens and you have an accident, you are in deeeeep du du. Stay with in the manufactures specs and be safe for yourself and the others you share...

    Forget biofuels - burn oil and plant forests instead

    Man they are all over the place! Sounds like a couple of Profs that have run a muck at their university! You are right, diesel equipment to plant Biodiesel feedstock that can use Biodiesel to do it. Sounds like their underlining theme is reforestation due to deforestation which from what I have...

    Oh you use the B20 for startup and shut down and the diff you are seeing is over the WVO?, that I can understand. Towing the Travel Trailer for 2,700 miles on B100 then the last 30 gal of petro probably around B20 I really could not tell a diff in the 97. No gauges but seat-o-pants no diff...

    What is this?

    You are saying your truck runs better on B20 than B100?. Is it really that noticeable? Power, mileage, Idle, filter clogging what? Wonder if the B100 you were getting was less than spec. Rick H...
