B100 rules!

Got some B100 before trying to get TXatty's gauges in.


Truck is extremely quiet and smooth, my restriction gauge on the Dahl is still at 3. Found what was in the other Bio fiasco from here in town, had too much glycerin. My new vendor showed us a new 24 hour old sample and it had the glycerin in the bottom of the jar, looked just like what I got before.

No stuff floating in the Dahl with this fuel. I'm getting a 98 gallon bed tank this week and will be running B100 exclusively now.

did you have to reset the regulator pressure running the b100?
either up or down.
I drove all the way to work once with zero pressure, little low on power but ran

Nope, it may have picked up a couple psi but that's only 72psi so I left it. I watch my FP on the cowl and it's acting funny right now but was doing it before the bio. Bob Reilly told me that my compression fitting may be leaking air into the system in the tank when low enough. He told me a different way to do the mod. If that doesn't fix the erratic gauge then it's prolly the fuel pump he said. But I know that the pump has had some BAD stuff from water to glycerin run through it. It may be on it's last leg. Today it seems to be getting worse with the restriction gauge on the filter not changing and no air bubbles coming through the Dahl.

you got a spare pump in case???
you have to be ready to stomp some tail in may at a certain track over in east texas.

I'm looking into a Bosch pump that some folks are using.

As far as May goes, my synchros don't like me anymore. I got on it yesterday when mid 90's tbird was messing with me at a stop light. I was in the 80 hp Evo tune and it barked them going into second and 3rd but scratched going into 3rd.

Finding a quality supplier makes all the difference. The B-100 I get comes with a written guarantee that it meets ASTM standards, which does not permit ANY residue or byproducts. There is a lab at the service station and he only accepts pure B-100.

Got cold last night, in the mid 30's. Filter restriction gauge was up to 7"/hg, hopefully goes down as it warms back up. Glad I got the heated Dahl!

Picked up a 90 gallon tank today, it's black. Hopefully help in the winter and not hurt it in the summer.
