Cowboybob, runs only b20 and he says its cheaper and gets better mileage out of it
Yup, and I won't switch back to regular diesel. Around here it is about 10 cents less than regular diesel and I get the same results as if I were burning regular diesel with additives, w/o the extra cost of the additives.

I have found a source of waste oil and will be building my own processor here shortly. Hopefully this summer I'll be running B100.
Thanks cool stuff CB!

I have recently started adding straight waste oil to mine filtered and triple checked. I am doing about 33% right now and love it. except the cold morning I had today, but I am on a learning curve.

Some points of biodiesel or other alternative fuels is cleaner burning and more importantly for me is that less of my fuel dollars would be going to buy crude oil from terrorists by staying here in the US buying farmers produce to make the biodiesel.
hehehe Solar tell me how you really fell about it

Hey now... since when are we not encouraged to express opinions on this forum?

Oh, almost forgot to mention, congrats on TOTM
