Woodydel 0 Posted April 18, 2005 Dave, A while back there were topics where one of the guys mentioned they made bio diesel fuel. He also said he got out of producing it because the chemicals were too dangerous. Seems he would know everything necessary. A topic search right here will pull up your information. Woody Dave, I did the search and pulled up your post back in 2001! LBS was the at one time maker of biodiesel.

BLT 717 Posted April 18, 2005 Fist thing I would look for if there is any hint of salt to be used a preservative. If there is, maybe a new fuel pump will be in order? Also bio diesel doesn't have the btu content as number #2 fuel does, less power. You might need to eat all the do-nuts you can to push the tractor while it is trying to mow the grass with a bio mix.
