I would like to try it.. even if it costs a bit more.. might help a little with our image..or maybe not but I am more curious then anything else...

To help with the image you can always do like Robert with his H3 with an Hybrid/Multi fuel logo on the back, I wanted to know all about that engine that I had never heard of and where that engine was coming from . When we met at rally, only after a while he confess that it was only to calm down opinion that he affix the logo ,, <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' />

Be warned folks! Do your homework before "trying" biodiesel. The fuel is great at cleaning old deposits from your fuel system and plugging the fuel filter. It will also degrade rubber piping so if you plan to use it regularly you must replace rubber fuel lines with a biodiesel-compatible material.



Same issue with scarcity on Vancouver Island. A few years ago I enquired and found that there was one cardlock pump in Victoria - the only one on the Island. If you hunt on the Internet you may find some local biofuel cooperatives. Even if you make your own fuel you are supposed to pay tax on it.



Good luck.

When I had my H1 I went to truck town in Milton often. The price of the bio is the same price as regular so I didn't bother getting it. The one great thing is that since the H1 uses high velocity nozzels filling up was rather quick! They are on Steeles just off the 401 before James Snow Pkwy.

Husky sells a gas ethanol mix but for E85 one newspaper reporter (wanting to test a demo truck ) found the only source was a farmer who mixed his own.
