Ford or whomever said that using a % of biodiesel helps lubricity. I know that when I had to use biodiesel in my 6.4L (that's all I could find) in Illinois before I moved here to Michigan, my truck ran terrible and lousy fuel mileage on it. Now that I can get regular diesel up here, my truck runs alot better. So I don't know whose leg is being pulled anymore.
Don't think Ford ever officially advised anyone to use biodiesel blend to get better lubricity.
There is a lot of biodiesel boosters (many raiding burger stands for raw materials) claiming miracles with biodiesel.
I personally would not let biodiesel touch mine -- though in many places it is hard to not have some as it is required by law.
Name brand fuel is what I would buy, and save the receipt each time.
