Oh come on EarnestDD, it is a widely known fact that biodiesel is more solvent than mineral diesel. This is why users cannot switch directly to 100% bio no matter who makes it. The sludge left behind from mineral diesel clogs the filters.

That is why you see B5 or B20. In fact my home heating oil is B5. Next year we get B20. You have to work your way into it or you will clog filters (due to the crap left behind by mineral diesel).

Clogging filters will not cause an engine to fail. Clogging a filter causes the fuel to stop flowing. Are you trying to tell me that every time a big diesel engine runs out of fuel, the engine could fail......YA RIGHT.
