I ran my 2006 Fiesta 1.4Tdci on Morrisons fuel stations' B30 biodiesel and it ran superbly and quietly. Then I took it for an MOT and they revved the proverbials off it for the smoke test. Then they handed it back to me with the injectors knocking like a military band and smoke coming off the back of the engine. The seats had been blown off the injectors! The garage blamed it on my having used bio-diesel and charged me £150 for cleaning off the carbonisation and fitting new seals... But a contributor to another forum tells me that the 1.4tdci's injector seals are known to be a weak point and would have needed changing at some point anyway... That's my story!

Any vehicle that normal runs on diesel can be made to run on bio-diesel, but seeing as there are very few diesel engine cars on the road as is, I'm finding that it's very hard to find a car that runs on bio-diesel. Mostly, it seems, buses are getting the conversion.

Will a diesel generator run on bio-diesel without any issues?
You have to make minor modifications to run any diesel engine on biofuel. You may have to preheat the biodiesel through an add on device as vegetable oil is too viscuous to burn cold in a diesel engine. Here's a site with more information http://www.veggiebus.com/biodiesel.html. No, you would need to purchase a generator that is set up to take biodiesel. Or modify your current diesel generator. There are instructions on how to do this on the internet. Try to google how to modify a generator to run on biodiesel.

To modify a vehicle to run on bio diesel when it already uses diesel is a fairly simple process. All you should need is a hose kit that is compatible with bio diesel. The bio diesel tends to eat up factory hoses. An Auto parts store should be able to give you what you need if you go ask them your specific question.

Hi yes you can run your car on bio diesel and it doesn't affect the performance of the car. we have a Volvo v40 1999 & v40 2001 running on 100% bio diesel. But you will have change your fuel filter once you have done 200 miles which cost about £7 for replacement part and take 10 mins to change and you can use a oil filtyer remover tool to get it off. it is located under the bonnet on the passengers side at the back at the botttom screwed on side ways and it sshould be white in colour. as the bio diesel will break down the residue left from normal diesel in the fuel filter which could block the fuel pipes and injectors. That's all you will need todo to run your car on 100% bio diesel. Hope this helps
