Running Bio you really only need to replace all the seals as bio diesel will eat the seals away if there not new....I dont know why you would want to run bio though because the last time I checked biodiesel is around the same prices as regular Diesel

And besides it hurts every one more if you run the bio from gass staions as its ingreadiants are farmed instead of food, wich drives up the cost of food.

Biodiesel can be made from many things, much of it is waste otherwise, so before you go running it down, you may want to do some homework. Not all biodiesel is made from fresh vegetable oil, much of it is from waste cooking oil, animal fats, and other places. If you want a place to put blame for higher food costs, try higher fuel and energy costs, higher fertilizer costs, as well as higher seed costs.

The energy difference between regular diesel and bio diesel is not enough to make bio not worth it. Unless of course you are paying the exact same price for both, then bio would not be worth it

The misleading thing about BioD is that there are all sorts of blends ranging from 2% to 100%.
A small amount of BioD is actually good for our old IDI's since the ULSD doesnt lubricate like our IDI's need......
