I do get a little bit less miles per gallon though. But, I am sending 15-20% less of my money to the terrorists in the Middle East with the purchase of Bio-diesel.
Are you still getting your bio from Alamo bio or are you making it yourself now

Question How can I learn to make homebrew??

Only thing i've done is use biodiesel rated fuel hose when I installed my FASS.
If you do use biodiesel, carry a spare filter, especially for the first few tanks.
It's worked great for me, no issues whatsoever.
Can you tell me how I can make homebrewed biodiesel? I would like to try it for my 94 Dodge Cummins.

Hey you still running bio in the 1995 cummins w/o issue? I have a PSD and my uncle has a 1995 cummins but we were told that 95 still has the rubber fuel lines. Is B100 ok for 1995 cummins?

Also, are there any other seals/gaskets that would be affected.. like fuel pump or anything else?

We are looking to go in on a biodiesel setup and start making our own but he wasn't sure about his '95 holding up to it.

Anyone is free to answer these questions. Thanks!
