Yes it is safe to mix petroleum diesel and biodiesel. Blends of biodiesel and petroleum diesel are designated "BX." Where "B" states that the fuel mixture is a biodiesel blend and "X" indicates the percentage of biodiesel in the blend. For example, common blends of biodiesel in North America include B2 (2% biodiesel), B5(5%), B20(20%), and B100(100%). B100 is also know as "neat," or pure, biodiesel.

What is diesel?
Diesel is a fuel burned in some vehicles. It is produced from petroleum, just like regular gasoline. The most popular/well-known brand of diesel engines is Powerstroke, from Ford Motor Company. Other forms of diesel are BioDiesel. BioDiesel is made out of corn. If you've ever heard of "B20" that means 20% BioDiesel. The mixture is 20% BioDiesel and 80% Regular Diesel. If you hear "B40" it is 40% BioDiesel and 60% Regular Diesel. If it is "B100" it is 100% BioDiesel and 0% Regular Diesel. That is what diesel is....

Why don't more people use biodiesel in their diesel trucks?
It would be great if more people used biodiesel in the diesel trucks! However, at least in Michigan, you can not legally sell the biodiesel you make at home and many people do not want to put the time and effort into making it themselves. There are a few negatives to using biodiesel in diesel trucks. First, there is limited availability of biodiesel fuel. Next, the cost is much higher for biodiesel. Also, fuel economy is off by at least 10%. Additionally, biodiesel may be a concern in cold weather and in older vehicles.
