ever seen this stuff advertised around?

I have seen it at sunoco, they clam lower sulfer and cleaner emitions blah blah blah, but wondering if it actualy has any real tangabil results?

anyone?
 
Tangible results? Sure, its lack of sulfur will wreak havoc on your IP unless you run a good quality additive every single tank.

Exactly :D
On the other hand it also should get less soot, which could help the oil stay cleaner longer.
And yeah keep the air cleaner Bla Bla :haha:
 
I run soy GOLD diesel. It has much better emissions and is a great lubricant for the IP. But it is probably something different from what you found.

Your soy gold diesel is basically a mix of low sulfur diesel and Vegetable (soy) oil which is a great lubricant for the IP.
Actually if you run enough VO you will have cleaner and smoother running engines.
Unfortunately if you are buying the VO it's more expensve than diesel so most people will not.
I am working on some sources for WVO (waste veg oil) for free, which would make it cheap :D
 
The 99% biodiesel I buy is 2.64 a gallon which is the same price of diesel arouind here.
 
i would reather get used veggy oil, and make biodiesel for like 60 cents a gal ( or so says the adds) then buy bio for the same price
 
Yeah that is my plan too, but I just need time. I would love to make it myself.

man, i gotta move back to az. it's over $3/gal here! not cost effective. of all the states to have higher biodiesel cost, i would not expect oregon (treehuggers).
 
It is 3.64, but there is a 99 cent tax cut or something. I don't know but it comes out to be 2.64. It just came down from 2.85 like a week ago. They say the price fluctuates with the crops.
