[QUOTE]Originally posted by WRS92GT: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by 9Venom9: [qb] Or how about Farm Diesel? Can it be found and will they let you buy it? [/qb][/QUOTE]Uh sure if you don't mind the man bending you over for tax evasion. Many counties especially farming area counties conduct roadside "dip tests" to see if you're running red dye diesel. Now the kicker is there is another version that is FAR harder to come by but if you have access to it it is virtually undectable with regard to dip tests, that being clear diesel. I only know of three farmers that have had or currently have clear diesel. Honestly bio-diesel really isn't that effective in anything other than 12V Cummins rigs. 6.9L IDI, 7.3L, 6.0L, 6.4L Powerstrokes, 6.6L Duramax all do not react well to bio-diesel without some serious retrofitting your fuel system. Even the last generation 5.9L Cummins powerplants recommend that you only run 20% bio mixed in with regular #2 diesel. Another major issue for bio-diesel is securing a long term fuel source to use for converting to bio. Most people just don't bother due to these reasons. I'm not saying it can't be done but it's just not that effective in my opinion. [/QB][/QUOTE]
