    Ive been useing Bio-deisel. Fantastic, its a pound per ltr, and mile for mile i think you get further/better mileage. If it was the same price as regular deisel, id still get it.
    He who says "he can" and he who says "he can't", are both usually right.

    That's correct. It does thicken a lot in colder weather. The less diesel they mix in with it, the thicker it goes. You often have to have special fuel filters fitted to deal with it.
    We used to run Ford Ranger 2.5 TD pickups, and had no end of trouble with the filters. Had to drain the tanks on a couple and refill with regular diesel a couple times. Goes like a crystalline sort of goop. That was 80/20 mix, so only 1/5 diesel.

    The government managed to kill bio-diesel as an alternative here in Norway by imposing the same taxes as for any other fuel...
