Bio-Diesel?

Hey guys, there are a couple of stations here in Santa Fe that offer the B20 bio diesel, and I was thinking about trying it.
Do I need to do anything special before hand? What do you think about the product, is it safe to run?

I'm gonna post this elsewhere on the forum to get more opinions.

The 7.3 is ok with B20, I would run it if the cost was lower.

Yeah, they are really proud of their product, $4.95 at the Buffalo Thunder station. I bit the bullet and went ahead and topped off. I probably won't notice any difference until I use most of this tank and fill up with it again.

I'll let you know how it goes.

It may be my imagination (or wishful thinking), but I seem to get better throttle response and more power. The price has dropped a little and I'm gonna keep using it and see what happens...
