Question

Can I run bio-diesel 100 in my 1999 f250 7.3lL with no ill effects?

Answer 1

You need to have Viton seals in it and synthetic fuel line I wouldnt run b100 in a vehicle biodiesel is a solvent and diesel is a lubricant it can also gell easy and change your fuel filter before you start using it you should use at least b80 in it

Answer 2

no bio diesel causes nothing but problems in ford trucks and most class 5-8 rigs it will strip out your fuel tank of the coating to keep it from rusting causing the fuel filter to clog it wrecks injectors and ford doesn't cover that under warranty like the other poster saidbio diesell is a solvent and reg diesel is a lubricant the diesel fuel system uses the diesel to lube the high pressure pump and injectors. Food for thought ford injectors are just under 900.00 a pop to replace not including labor stick with reg diesel to save a lot of headaches and money and down time. I'm a diesel mechanic with over 9 years of experience.  

Answer 3

Sure, if it's from a reputable dealer.  Diesels will run on just about any petroleum product  ie...cooking oil, waste oil, etc.  As long as it is clean an filtered, your engine should run fine.  It may not have the btu's of number 1 diesel, so your mileage and power may suffer.
