Hello everyone, this is my first time posting, hope I am doing this right. I have enjoyed reading all the other posts for a couple of months now. Does anyone have any comments, suggestions, additives needed, pro or con, on running biodiesel. Thanks for anyhelp, I have greatly enjoyed this forum!

I wanna say that Cummin's said B20 was Okkie Dokkie in 03-06's.

I just can't find B20 here - - everyone here sells 100%

Did you try the B100? I have a source for B100 but I do not want to void my warranty. I believe a 2006 is only good for B05 but I may be wrong.

From Cummin's:

I think my engine code is ETH. Is that a correct code do you think?
