It is electronic. Go with ashless non-synthetic 2-stroke oil or Opti-lube. RBP is good too but why pay more?

sorry i missed this when u first posted it i guess. i use in every tank, i can feel and see a difference. my motor runs smother, and when i first used it i got a 2 mpg difference, but that wasnt saying much, i went from 11 to 13 mpg. ill have to stop useing it for a tank or 2 and see what im at now without it. but yes i use the performance additive, i think webcruzer's sudjetion would be better if you just wanted to use the regular stuff.

with most bio fuel yo will loose mileage, its supposed to be cheap that was it doesnt matter but since its the same price i wouldnt put tons of bio in the tank , a cople of gallons and the rest diesel, its really in this case only being used as a lubricant not and alternative fuel, there is some steps that are needed to convert to straight bio.

iv been looking and from what i saw on alot of reasearch is that the B20 mix gives you the best of both worlds with better milage and performance. still looking around though, need to find somewhere here that sells it.

Is it safe to run B20 in a truck that's never seen bio in it's life? Do you need to change fuel lines and stuff?

i have the fass so im not worried about that, but i think u still have to change any rubber lines but im not positive about that. from what iv heard the only thing u have to worry about with bio is all the crap its going to clean out of your system. you may have to change the fillter a few times but thats about it other then the lines and stuff like that. i know alot of diesel drag cars run B20, ill look it up agen but i thought it was one of the best fuels to run.
