Default Bio-Diesel, Good or Bad?

Do you or have you ever run Bio-Diesel? Is it good or bad, a new station just opened up down the street from me and they offer Bio-Diesel.

i like running it from time to time. if they are selling B99 or B100 and you have never ran it keep a couple fuel filters with you. it cleans everything out of your tank and lines and will clog up the filters.

Exactly! also, don't run it if you are in a climate where the temperatures reach below the waxing point of Bio. (Which i dont know what that is) Im sure the station would know. Otherwise, its great stuff, makes your truck run pretty smoothly and quietly too.
