Experience w/ B20 Bio-diesel in 8V92

[Al]

B20 will give the similiar performance as petro diesel. I run B100
year round and don't have waxing problems. Of course, when it gets
down to 30 degrees or less, I go to about B90. With that said, I do
live in the deep South and we only have a day or two of cold
weather. If I lived in the north, I would drop my percentage more to
insure I had no problem. Easiest way to see, is to keep a pint jar
of your B20 in a unheated bay and that way you can tell at a glance
what is going on with your fuel. B20 mixture will start to wax or
gel at a slightly higher temp then straight petro. The biggest word
of advice, is try to maintain percentage so that you are not
shrinking and expanding your seals. Also 1% biodiesel will increase
the lubrication of your motor by 30% so no more additives are needed.

have all teflon lined flex fuel lines too. Bio likes to wax up
around 50 degrees too, not for winter use.
