jtd biodiesel non runner

[mark haines]

hi ive been offered a 115jtd which has been filled with biodiesel and now does not run .. but will start with easy start! could anybody tell me if i could be buying trouble or should i go for it? its cheap as chips and i suspect that chips may have been where the bio diesel came from..any help would be great as our multi has just snapped the cam belt and is apparently beyond repair..

thanks mark
