    Yep changed the fuel filter after the first tank, didn't find any crap in there it actually looked fairly clean.

    Mike, after running B100 and then filling the car with Dino-diesel when i had 1/2 a tank of bio-diesel left it did seem to go much better, so i think that B50 would be a better option or nothing.

    Being a mix, does the B50 separate at all after a time?

    While I was reading the D3 handbook, it stated something to the nature of using bio-fuels will void warranty.

    Will need to check the book again and confirm.

    On the way back from Brisbane the other day saw a place just south of Shepparton (Vic) selling Bio..... price was 14c cheaper than the real stuff. I didn't buy any but at least they seem to have the pricing right!

    Baz, your a gamer man than me :?

    IMHO, it ain't worth the possible grief or worry.

    It is half way to being right, for a waste product that would need to processed to be dumped it should be cheaper still. Matt
