Biodiesel in Victoria

[B92 8NW]

Hi.

I appreciate that this topic has probably been done to death in the past, but I would like to know if anybody knows whereabouts in Victoria biodiesel is available. I have done a search and one person had seen it around Shepp area... PM sent.

Thanks In advance,

From these sources it would appear that there currently no retailers in Vic:

The Sydney (Marrickville) retailer is having a blue with his landlord and is closed. :roll:

The Volume Plus station on Parramatta Road in Lewisham is selling Biodiesel, just advertised with that slip of paper - laminated - on the pump, but 131.9 this week, rather than 139.9.

I bought some anyway. Looked like ****, literally.

Drove up to Mount Victoria, worked a treat, maybe not as many K's per L, maybe not.

I thought the engine was quieter.

Cheers
Simon

Do you know what grade: B100, B50...?

B100 will gel in cold temperatures.

The fella behind the counter had no idea what I was talking about.

The plaque on the bowser said blend, but no numbers.

Like I said, looked like ****, so I'm thinking B100.

Wasn't too worried about gelling, was warm enough in the mountains to regret not putting on sunscreen. Must have holes in the hat.

Hi Joel,
There is a biodiesel co-op in Melbourne - have you come across them yet?

You can track them down through the following site:
