And you thought it was another "can i run on..." thread
I finally set aside my paranoia about the doblo's alleged weak fuel pump and took on my first 10 litres of Bio-Diesel yesterday.
I get it from an independent manufacturer based in my home town and my trusty old Fiorino (no, i won't let it die!) ran on it for thousands of miles without a hitch.
So far so good, no fuel pump light, no lumpy tickover etc.... Smells better, runs smoother and genuinely does pull a little better. Ok it isn't suddenly turbo'd but it definitely orcks itself uphills with a little less wheeze and a little more grunt.
I'll keep this thread updated with my progress if anyone is still interested, that way we'll know for sure if these things can run consistantly on Bio.
I'll get a few fuel filters in stock then.....
