Number one, is Biodiesel a bright or flouresent green color? And do they add an additive to the fuel to help with lubrication? I understand that lubrucation is an issue with this Biodeisel stuff. Thanks!

The B20 (20% bio, 80% dino) I have run in my truck was clear. I do not know a great a deal about diesel fuels, but I would stay away from fluorescent green anything. Also the biodiesel I purchased (Tucson AZ) has no additives other then what might be in the dino/petro diesel component. The higher cetane level in the B20 gave me the best milage I've ever gotten in the Duramax.

Albee, if you want more info on biodiesel check out www.biodiesel.org (http://www.biodiesel.org) Biodiesel actually is a lubricant and helps increase the lubrication value of the fuel.
