That's all fine and dandy but what if you don't have BIO-diesel near by? I'm 200 miles from the closest BIO fuel dealer. So its a 400 mile round trip for me.... So now what???

Remember not everyone is getting BIO-diesel yet...

No, it looks like you've found test results, not a reason to get excited quite yet. That is until they start human testing.

Now, from the written results it's irritating to skin, eyes and highly flammable.

There you go they have another reason to raise the price on diesel again. They are protecting use, and that cost money.

All of the Wal-mart stores in my area are selling B10. I've been using it for the last 10,000 miles or so along with my usual quart of TCW-3 2 stroke oil.

After you run B20, you'll need to change yer fuel filter at least twice, on account of all the crap it runs outta yer system.

I've got 400 acres in pinto beans this year, but no plans for soy

That's like crapping on a paper plate and adding whipped cream and eating it again...

Sorry but that oil is used and has all kinds of nasty stuff in it that the VP44 pump won't like...
