What would be the best mixture of biodiesel to burn in my 2003, 305 HO Cummins?

 

Ive ran b100 for a tank with no problem in my 600. I only have ran 4 tanks through her really wish i had some 600 injectors laying aroudn to do some test with. From what i understand the wholes in the 600 are fewer and bigger thant hat in the previous CR engine. Which would make it a better canidate for Veggie oil. And ive seen an ISX run straight Veggie so im thinkin it may be a good idear

I thought that was a problem of low mileage but it wasnt


One thing ive notices with the reflash. My overhead will say 20 for mileage but hand give me like 17-18. before it was low mileage but the overhead was dead on

 

The older engines had 6 hole inj. the 600's have 7.

 

I thought the old had 8 and hte new had 5? Need some tech safe people haha

 

Jerry 007 - I would start with b20. That's just about the most popular blend, and has the best balance of cost vs benefits. You won't lose any power or mpg at b20, and will definitely notice less smell and smoother idle etc.

 

thanks lightman. I'll take your advice. This will be my first time trying the biodiesel.

 

Anyone know where I can get biodiesel near Portland, ME? Or Newport, RI?

Joel, the best place to find it is to check the Buying Biodiesel guide at www.biodiesel.org. There are two clickable US maps - one for retail locations and one for distributors.
