WVO and diesel do not mix very well. WVO is heavier than D-2 and will settle to the bottom of the tank.

I've been using B-100 for 2 years and in my opinion produces about 5-10 percent MORE power than D-2. I haul 16 tons of hay on my 5th-wheel trailer and have found no problems. Biodiesel has a slightly lower btu value than D-2 BUT a much higher cetane rating. Biodiesel is also an oxygenated fuel and contains aprox 10 percent oxygen, that may account for a slight HP increase.
