    Hello everyone,

    I've been hearing a lot about using biodiesel. One of the questions I have, especially to those who are already using it is, does it have any effect on the existing parts of the car (hoses, engine, etc.) like clogging?

    Also, is it advisable to use it even on a brand new diesel car?

    Thanks guys!

    I'm running 5% on my Pajero. Pero it's too early to tell kung may negative effects in the long run.

    Mas lumakas siya and nabawasan nga ang usok.

    on 94 down vehicles, frequent use of B100 blend will eat your rubber gaskets since these are not made of viton rubber. but on 94 up, wala naman so far, daw....this is what I also read on research sa net.

    mahirap din naman siguro gamitan nd B100 because of the cost per liter.
