I have been experimenting with Volume Plus Biodiesel on my Surf and have so far used it in less than 50% mix with BP or Mobile diesel. Hard to say what percentage of Biodiesel since I don't know the blend they sell and they dont know either.
There are no noticeable differences in power yet it has an annoying quality, it makes the engine harder to start.
Not that it is struggling or not starting, but I must crank it over for longer when with pure petroleum diesel it starts almost instantly, with 20-40% biodiesel at a guess and even with less in the mix, it needs a few seconds of cranking even after heating up twice.
Is this the norm with Biodiesel and nothing to worry about?
I wonder what will happen if I use 100% BD
