in newer vehicles with alternators

100% biodiesel use should also be avoided in newer vehicles with DPF (Particulate filters) fitted. This is because biodiesel is rumoured to react with the chemical cleaning additive which is injected into the fuel system at intervals by the ECU. However it is still possible to run at alternator parts for sale around 50% blends of biodiesel in these vehicles without adverse effects, but please note the possible risks. Some vehicles may experience a slight improvement in MPG figures when on bio, some engines may return exactly the same on biodiesel as they do with regular diesel, but some engines occasionally do get slightly lower figures on 75 - 100% blends of biodiesel than they do on alternator for sale regular diesel, and this should be factored in when comparing prices of fuel etc. It really is hit and miss, but a +/- figure of roughly 4 - 5 mpg difference is common, it also depends on how a vehicle is driven, the quality of biodiesel and the oil used to make it. In general biodiesel contains less energy than regular diesel fuel, and so a small negative difference in MPG should perhaps be anticipated.
