Biodiesel

Hey m8,
I have been running Gull Bio-D in my 3ltr Patrol for about 6months now, done about 15,oooklms no worries at all. I have noticed no difference in any of the motors normal characteristics.....oh and before any Toyo or 4.2 owners say anything.....the charateristic for the engine to blow is not evident either.....yet.....80,0000 klm service due next week = )

Regards

We ran the Gull Bio in our Patrol for 2 and a half years with never a problem.

p.s.
check your fuel filter, it may be full of crap from the cleaning effect of the Bio.

Would the Engine Management light come on if the filter was blocking? Or does the fuel filter have it's own dedicated warning light?

Bio-D does tend to scour out any kerrapp that's in yer fuel lines or tanks. If you ever switch to Bio-D after years of uisng Dino-D, always have a new filter in the back of the truck.

I'd change the fuel filter fer starters and see if the light goes out.

I'm with Bilbo on this. Probs with bioD is generally always filter related.

A mate of mine has found this model is perfect for running 100% vege oil, so a bit of healthy bioD is going to be lapped up.

Why are they good for 100% vege oil?
Already has a smallish sub tank where he puts BioD or DinoD and uses this for start up and shut down.
There is a 70° temperature switch built in, which he has used to turn on the vege oil and run it through the heat exchanger.
He's even built a little sytem for filtering oil straight out of the back of the chip shop and straight into his tank for on the fly filtering and fill ups on country runs.

And doing a dedicated two tank system remains entirely legal as the excised and non excised fuels are never blended. Great setup.
