Okay Lightman, what is the cost of this fuel??? Is it more or less than #2 ??? How available is it throughout the U.S.??? I'd love to support it...

Lightman

The only three downsides, which are slight, to this fuel, are price, availability, and BTU. At 20% blends, these factors aside from availability, are pretty moot. Prices range from $1.80 to $3.50/gal depending what area of the country you live in, and how much your local distributor wants to rip you off. Most places are from $2 to $2.50/gal. Buying in bulk always lowers the price. The thought is by most, if you dump in 5-8 gallons per tank, the cost isn't that great compared to the engine benefit, and thats 5-8gals of fuel we didn't need to buy crude oil to make.

Big Dawg, you're in luck. There's a distributor right in Evansville!! Most of us have to drive a ways to get the bean juice!! IN has more bio than almost any state I've seen, due to all the farmer support. Here ya go big dawg.

does anyone know if bio is in the Ct area ??? i would love to try some but MI is a bit too far for a test run lol

Lightman

Here's one place in CT, where I know a lot of ppl get their bio, and it's good quality.
http://ctbiodzl.freeshell.org

WHIFF

How about Oklahoma?

I'd be willing to put a couple of gallons in, but at $2.00 per gallon, I might as well move back to California, sell my children, and get a 2nd mortgage on my house! OUCH!

Lightman

I didn't see anything in OK, but if you are in the northern part, there are plenty in KS.

Guys here's the link to find bio in your area. Click the part that says 'find petroleum distributors in your area' and the one that says 'retail fueling sites'.
http://www.biodiesel.org/buyingbiodiesel/guide/

www.biodiesel.org is a great site for info.

Thanks Lightman...I'll go and check it out...great info...

This post is an attempt to clarify another post to this forum. I am in charge of planning the biodiesel pump event for Crystal Flash and we are very excited to be able to offer biodiesel right at the pump in West Michigan! I am so glad that so many of you are supporters of this initiative and are so willing to help promote the use of biodiesel.



However, there was a miscommunication on the post. The event begins at 1:30pm and goes until about 2:30pm on August 12. During that time, we will be holding a press conference, unveiling the pump and wrapping it up with a fuel parade that includes some West Michigan corporate partners. After 2:30pm, we will be handing out 100 coupons (one per customer) for 10 free gallons of B20 (the blend Crystal Flash is offering at the pump) and we will be allowing consumers (hopefully many of you!) the opportunity to fill up at that time. Please do not arrive to fill up before that time due the specific timing of the events that will be taking place.



We would love to see many of you at Crystal Flash to help raise awareness about biodiesel in West Michigan. I know some of you have 100 gallon tanks to fill but we can only offer 10 at this time. We want to keep Crystal Flash in business for a long time! I hope each of you will take advantage of this opportunity and share in our excitement. I know the event will be a tremendous success in raising awareness for alternative fuel. Please don’t hesitate to call/email me with any questions and please aid me in spreading the word. Thanks!

(please, please spread the word about the 2:30, or later, time to fill up)



Warm Regards,

This is a big deal, apparently the mayor will be there for the unveiling of the new pump etc. All you grand rapids guys are lucky, you will now have a b20 pump. The best part is that I emailed her, and the biodiesel will be blended with their premium high cetane diesel. Often times you wonder what crappy #2 they used for the dino diesel portion. This will be truly great stuff!! Too bad its on the opposite end of the country! Michigan has lots. Theres a b20 pump at wacker oil, near ann arbor I believe, that has 20% bio and 80% Amoco Premier (50 cetane min)!

Redleg

Not gonna cut out of work early for only 10 gallons. I'll still try it though, if it's not too expensive.

Soooo Kelly, you drive a Cummins?
