Biodiesel I am new here, so hi guys, there are problems with the oil from the restaurants because it does not have the same wear quality, it does not coat parts as well and tends to break down quicker than regular oil. The recommended mix is no more than 10% oil /90% diesel. UBC in Vancouver Canada uses it on all of their vehicles and most have had to be rebuilt because their mixture was to heavy on the oil. Be careful mixing it any more than that or you will have problems.
I owned a 99 dodge cummins diesel (Automatic though cause I'm real tired of changing gears in rush hour traffic)and the tranny in the 99 and up was better than the 98 and down by a mile. The truck was a lot better than my buddies 00 ford diesel (automatic). He kicked himself for a long time after buying it because he liked my dodge much better. I tried to tell him but he would not listen! Ride and handling seemed better in mine too. They all have their problems though and it is definitely a personal preference! I am not specifically a dodge guy, it is just my own opinion. I like certain Ford trucks too but I am real picky. |
