I made an inner city detour while in Austin this weekend and bought 38 gallons of B99 from EcoWise. My truck sure liked it and now I have 15 gallons in my garage to last me a couple more weeks. $3/gallon - ouch but it was worth it. :thumbs

If I were you I'd save those 15 gallons of B99 to blend in with the ULSD to give you better lubricity...once your tank is empty.

that is my plan. great minds... sadly, I have used virtually all of both my tanks on the 350 mile drive home. I am going to fill with ulsd today and put in one of my 5 gal cans. We are expecting heavy freeze this week so want to keep the percentage down to safe level. Do you think up to max B50 is safe at 10*F? More likely it will be around 30 percent but it's all guess work.

Glad you got some good stuff!:thumbs

I'm to the last of my B20 and the idiots here at the travel center that had it must have not paid the Friona supplier like they did to Biowillie.-mad They are out of B20 and said they were having trouble getting some from Colorado:confused: . Looks like I'm going to have to get some ULSD.:(


Supposed to get down to 15F Wednesday and Thursday night.:crumm



Thanks for the reminder, gotta call and ask Kendrick Oil about some B99, maybe he'll call me back this time.:rolleyes:

Beats me. :dunno I've been blending down to B75 (Gosh I feel dirty :D) lately but add Stanadyne Performance Formula to the tank to lower the gel point further. Lowest here so far has been 24*F and she fired right up on the first GP cycle. Maybe this winter I'll dust off my heater cord and use it for once. :D
