The last TSB I got on mine was one that seemed to de-tune the motor a little and made it cycle up and down. With my 6 six speed that was the straw the broke the camels back.

It seems to me that if Ford replaces your motor even though you have been running 100% bio you should be damn happy, even if it does take 4 or 5 weeks. I don't know enough about the bio to say it would or would not have any effect, but they clearly do not recommend 100% bio.

I believe B15 or 15% Bio is the highest recommended if I am correct, IMO the simple fact is you should be content and not **** them off. It doesnt matter if that caused the problem or not, but the truck is not designed to run on 100% and I am sure it is hard on the injection system and other components. If it was good on it Ford would say run 100%.......

I work for Volkswagen, our warrenty clearly states, b10 and no higher, if you use a higher Bio blend or B100, the warrenty will be lcearly voided and this is stated in ENGLISH in the owners manuel. So I beg to ask WHY do people still run Bio Diesel and then complain about the vehicle when it breaks down???????? There is a reason why modern diesels cannot run on this bio diesel, so why push it? I see out TDI's come in all the time on a tow tuck, all run bio diesel, the problems range from leacking injectors or pumps, to a clogged fuel filter, but now we are seeing in our Toureg V10 the head gaskets are leaking, YES caused by Bio Diesel. We then brand the vehicle, and the customer is pissed (dumb *** libtards). 
Here are some basic questions.
!. Is it OK to rob a bank when I need money, even though its illegal?
2. Can I put Bio Diesel in the gas tank fo my Mustang?
Clearly people will do what they want to do, but DON"T bash the manufacturer because YOU broke there rules of the product they built!

06 F-250 Lariat CC W/ Chrome Package and 20" wheels!
Mods: AFE Stage III, SCT W/ Long Island Diesel FILES, Alpine IVA-W205 w/ NAV, and MBRP 4" Duals
I believe that SCT and AFE will void the warranty faster than running bio diesel...
IMO commerical bio diesel is better than reg diesel fuel and more and more plants are being built . The future is bio fuel and E85 it may take awhile but someday we will be using these fuels as a norm.

It sounds like the two companies have tested the bio diesel and they are only comfortable with these percentages run through the system. I have read that there are parts on the Ford that will be slowy destroyed by bio diesel in time. It's too bad they cannot make something that meets EPA guidelines, which are ridiculous anyway, and be able to use products like this.
