thinking about bio for a long time...
i have been thinking and reasearching making bio for almost two years now. finally with diesel at $4.50 a gal. and the fact that i found two plastic 275 gal. tanks, with a metal cage and pallet built around the tank i figure now is the time to get started.
i do have some questions thought , is there a final consensus on weather or not b100 can be SAFELY run through a (year 2000) 7.3l? i have heard that international recommends only a 5% mix, because it can burn up the injectors. but if i cannot run at least a 50% mix it doesn't seem worth it to me.

Yes, you can run it in your 2000 7.3 at any strength. The best and latest info is here: Welcome - Collaborative Biodiesel Tutorial Website
I've been making and using B-100 for over 4 years on my ranch with multiple diesels with NO problems at all.

When everybody else is paying $4 PLUS per gallon, and you are paying $1 per gallon a little "mess and hassle" goes a loooong way.........................
