Local Regs on Bio Diesel

[Mark Rinker]

Let me know when one of the tree huggers comes up with a way to brew diesel from scrap wood.

I'll stop tossing all the dunnage (sp?) that goes under the steel and poly pipe I haul for a living, and drag it home to make tomorrow's go-juice!

I read on the dodge forums that the high pressure fuel lines causes the fuel to plasticize and messes up the injectors. However, I have no proof and would like to see a motor than has been run 100k miles of B-100 torn apart and looked at to compare to another engine run solely on dino diesel.

I would like to make Bio-D and I have a source for WVO that would give me 10 gal a week. Having some problems locating methanol locally. The lye is easy as it can be shipped easily.

However, nothing is worth messing up a 16k+ motor, so.... I would only run it at b5 level after I got good enough at it to pass ASTM specs. Yes, I would give up the initial savings by paying to get it tested.

We don't even run winter blend fuel here, so I am not worried about gelling. I can only remember 1 day where it got to 40 degrees last year.
