Biodiesel is an excellent cleaner and will remove deposits from your tank, it can unblock fuel filters and injectors. There are few problems associated with biodiesel meeting astm specifications.

Can you use biodiesel on your John Deere 4850?
B5 or 5% biodiesel would be the limit I would use in any tractor at least at the current level of biodiesel formulations. In the winter biodiesel does cause more problems so be more careful.

Can diesel or biodiesel be burned in a kerosene space heater?
ANSWER:Normal diesel fuel should not be burned in a kerosene heater, because there are many more contaminants in it, such as sulfur. A 100% solution of Biodiesel will not work because it requires a much higher initial temperature (300F) to burn cleanly. Blends of these fuels with kerosene can be burned, but there may be problems with the fuel soaking up the wick properly in the case of Biodiesel, which can lead to wick burning and sooting. There may also be problems lighting and burning properly if the blend contains too much of the Biodiesel, as its flash point is higher than kerosene. Diesel/Biodiesel fuel can also be run in many forced air heaters along with kerosene.
Is it safe to mix diesel and biodiesel?
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.
Where can one find information on biodiesel fuel?
Wikipedia provides an excellent encyclopedia style article on biodiesel fuel. Other websites that offer information about biodiesel fuel are the U.S. Department of Energy's Biodiesel page and the National Biodiesel Board's page.
Can I buy a hybrid car that uses biodiesel?
Yes, you can buy a hybrid that uses biodiesel but they are much harder to come by than hybrids that don't use biodiesel or biodiesel cars that aren't hybrids.
Can biodiesel for motorbikes?

Weight of biodiesel?

What vehicles can you biodiesel?
Most diesel-powered vehicles can run on biodiesel without major modifications. Biodiesel is designed to be a “drop-in” replacement or blend for petroleum diesel, so it’s widely compatible. ✅ Vehicles that can use biodiesel: Cars and SUVs with diesel engines (for example, many models from Mahindra, Tata, Ford, and Volkswagen). Commercial trucks and buses, which often benefit the most because of high fuel consumption. Agricultural machinery such as tractors, harvesters, and irrigation pumps. Construction equipment like excavators, loaders, and cranes. Marine engines used in boats and ferries. Generators and other stationary diesel engines. 📌 How it works: Blends like B5 or B20 (5% or 20% biodiesel mixed with diesel) are commonly used and safe for most engines. Pure biodiesel (B100) can be used in many modern diesel engines, but older engines may need rubber seals or hoses upgraded to prevent wear. 🌱 The advantage is that biodiesel reduces emissions, is biodegradable, and often improves engine lubrication. In India, companies such as My IndiFuels make biodiesel accessible through pumps, dealerships, and bulk delivery for transport fleets. 👉 In short: If a vehicle runs on diesel, there’s a good chance it can run on biodiesel too—either as a blend or even fully, depending on the engine and manufacturer guidelines.
What is the iodine value of biodiesel?
The iodine value of biodiesel gives an indication of the degree of unsaturation in the fatty acid chains present in the biodiesel. It is typically lower for biodiesel derived from saturated fats or oils, and higher for biodiesel derived from unsaturated fats or oils. Knowing the iodine value can help assess the oxidative stability and cold flow properties of biodiesel.
