Wondering if any of you guys are running any form of BioDiesel in your H1 ? I have run several hundred gallons of B20 (20% bio, 80% diesel). We have a local truck stop that carries it. My friend and I are considering doing the "cold process" B100 biodiesel.

Injunfariandoes... I think B20...

 

I have been running Biodiesel for years in my H1; I have run everything from B2 to B100 at one time or another.

Wow - completely forgot about that thread... it has a much better response from me than the one I just wrote!
Thanks Muddydawg

 

You must have a 6th sense... I type your name and 3 minutes later you appear...

 

Uncanny

 

I knew you were going to say that.

 

i have had some problems in the past with biodiesel hummers. i also contacted stanadyne and they sent me this link to answer my questions.

if nothing else it is good food for thought.

 

The other side of the equation. i have read/heard about issues with the biofuels on the FIE systems but a lot of people that are running the biodeisel fuels say they have yet to experience any significant issues. I wonder if that is due to the relatively short time frame since conversion? So far I am running straight diesel and plan on continuing unless they just pull it from the market in a fit of green.

 

Yes, I currently run B20(only stuff that is available within 20min drive). But that is only a couple months out of the year so i havent really had enough experience to say it doesnt affect everything. but Mannys thread and hummech's link should give you enough info to make your own decision i am sure.
