when filling up with diesel fuel, watch out for bio diesel, as some engine are not made to use it
today stop to fill up with diesel fuel pulled up to pump and all they had was bio diesel
some bio diesel fuel is very good and others not so much
this could cost a lot to fix problem

If you get the Pilot app it will tell you what the bio blend is at their stations. When the pump says 5 - 20% bio it doesn't tell you much. Sometimes the blend will only be 6 or 7% which is not bad. Stay away from anything too much higher though.

Bio diesel another way for polititians to bilk the masses and fill there pockets,everytime I have to use any above that 6-7 % I lose at least 1/4 to 1/2 mpg .
I cant believe that the peole think this is better for us if we are using more to deliver the same load, how does it save the environment.
