Newbe here,

I can only find B99 fuel here In Orange County California One In Santa Ana and one In Anaslime. Does anyone know where I can get B20 in the OC.

Next question Is I have an 06 F250 Crew Cab 4x4 short bed, Is using B99 ok for this truck? Do I need to make some changes to my truck to use B99 on a regular basis or should I stay with B20!

My truck Is my daily Vehical for work too!


Thanks alot for any information!:sweet

DeWitt Petroleum 1903 Durfee Ave South El Monte CA 91733 626-444-2691 B20 CFN CARDLOCK ONLY

Cudahy Fuel 8330 Atlantic Avenue Cudahy CA 90201 323-562-3230 B20 B99 M-F 5AM -7PM; CREDIT OK; B99 IS IN CONTAINERS $3.259


If I had a 6.0L I'd try and limit myself to B20 based on my personal opinion but I have read of 6.0L owners burning all the way up to B100 but unsure if they used it over the long term continuously.

Come by often and post up anytime:sweet

Its a little more work but you can mix it yourself with diesel to get the ratio you want. Go buy 2 or 3 five gal totes and buy the B99 if it is more convenient.

I ran B99 for about 8 months straight without any ill effects. I did not run it during the winter months as my job assignment would not allow me to get to San Jose during the day when the station was open.

I believe the time out is like 5 minutes so if you type past 5 minutes the system logs you out,now when that happens just login and step back a screen or two where you typed up your post then re-submit the post as thats what I occasionally have to do:D :sweet

The only thing I would recommend is that you carry a spare fuel filter and a wrench so you can change it if you have a fuel problem out on the road. I never had to change mine on the road and I don't think you will have to either. Also note that FORD does NOT recommend anything over 5% bio. No mods are required to run Biodiesel.
