I find few posts around where people say they run nothing but Biodiesel and they had success for many years. While i do understand that you have to have a correct formula in how to make biodiesel did anyone here tried with ecodiesels?

Its mandatory in MN Retail Nov 1 to April 30 3% Bio , May 1 to Oct 31 20% Bio ,Retail Biodiesel is the best lube fuel You can purchase, HPCR do NOT like Home Brewed Bio. If your going to brew It yourself, You will need to be very careful in whatever process you use.

I assume you can purchase it also however will biodisel cause an issue for ecodiesel engine made by fiat? Has someone tried it on eco?? Cummins we know people run it and have no issue and yes the lube is much better than regulad diesel or hydrodiesel.

My 2015 was on the Biodiesel Diet the WHOLE 4.25 Years I owned it. What makes you believe Biodiesel inferior; you need to concern yourself with 10+ known problems with VM 3.0. EGR, Exchangers, Tone Ring, Plenum, Rotating Mass, Fires, Turbo, 3-Way Valve, Warp Valves, Glow Plugs, Coolant Leaks, etc.

I try to avoid the B20 biodiesel, as I when I tried it soon after purchase I saw a significant decrease in mileage, same as the decrease in mileage I saw in my gas truck when using the ethanol blends.
