Our 05 Catdoesn'tlikeBio or the new ultra low sulfur diesel.
But Biodiesel does serious damage to injector an pump o rings and seals and fuel hoses, and other engine seals.I've heard or read of from 4,000.00 to as much as 8,000.00 to replace all the rings, seals and hoses and if injectors and pump are damaged s result it is a lot more. They say we can use up to 5% Bio diesel.I have put some B20 in the tan but not enough to exceed the 5% total volume.
We filled the tank abut 1/2 tank or 45 gallons of diesel at the Kingma, Az Flyin J three weeks ago.I did not see any labels saying it contained Biodiesel.
We will be sittign ehre another month so I'm going to the Ct Dealer and get some Biocide just in case.Bugs/algae likes Biodiesel as does water and Biodiesel gels easy. As noted by another poster we get fewer miles per gallon on even 5%Biodiesel. When you drive across country you notice the difference.
