How Much Bd For Lubrication?

Hello all, How much % biodiesel is recommended to make up for the new 15ppm diesel fuel as far as lurication of the injectors? I currently run powerservice with each tank but would prefer bio, as it is now available here in san antonio. Thanks

If they have B20 just do some math. Just remember the engine warranty is B5 max.

According to one MFA person I talked to (don't know if he was an engineer or what?) a 2% blend of bio is all that is necessary to replace the lubrication properties lost with the sulfur
