Is anybody with a '98.5 24V cummins using biodiesel? What modifications are needed to run bio? Is anyone out making their own bio diesel?
Biodiesel is a very good solvent so I would watch your fuel filter but other then that you should be pretty good to go.:thumbsupIs anybody with a '98.5 24V cummins using biodiesel? What modifications are needed to run bio? Is anyone out making their own bio diesel?

First off... I've never used bio-diesel at all in the life of my truck (not locally available!)... Second off when I installed my AirDog 150 fuel pump I installed my draw straw kit. Here is the inside of my fuel tank in 6 years...:w:after a tank or two you will need to change your fuel filter. the bio will clean out all the junk that has built up in your fuel system over the years.

If the junk is in the biodiesel then why getting it at the same place does the filter plugging stop after a few thousand miles and not reappear?First off...

There is no dirt, slime, etc in my fuel tank... So the junk that is plugging your filters is from the bio-diesel solely... Petroleum diesel is rather clean compared to bio-diesel...:w:
