92 First Gen Running Bio

Hey Guys!

My son has a 92 W250 with 128k. I have been running B100 in my 03 Third Gen for 2 years now without any issues.

Is there anyone running Bio (B100) in their First Gen? What will he need to do to run Bio safely? Does he need to change the Injector Pump seals?

Thanks for your help!

James

I have never done it in my 91 because i heard the stock lines are not rated for it. Im not sure if yours have been changed or not i know mine have not. Also not sure if it true just what i heard.

As far as the pump needing new seals I think it a coin tows.

If I remember correctly the Non-IC trucks have the wrong fuel lines. 91 and up intercooled engines have the proper lines....I think.

When you say lines, are you talking about the hoses? I have the opportunity to run bio but I want to make sure the truck will handle it.

Thanks

Yes it would be the hose we are talking about. And as GasganoFJ60 said It would be the non intercooled trucks that would be most **** to having the wrong hose.
