Cummins · 04-30-2006, 02:58 PM

Whats the differences between these grades, I was told that our rigs should not be run on anything over b5. There is a station near me that sells B5 so i'm goin to give it a go. Should i change my filter after the first tank?

The number represents the % of bio...so B5 is 5% bio ............ B-20 is 20% bio

There is no harm in running any percentage of bio you want in your truck. B5 or less is recomended, but we run B20 in all of our farm equip and trucks and John Deere also recomends no more than B5 but they also state that they will not void warranty if you run higher percentages. Cummins is the same way.
