    Hmmm, closest one by me is 48 miles away in Somerville, and it's been like that for the past two years or so. I'll be doing some more waiting for it to spread to my area.

    interstate 81 exit 217 at liberty gas station. right now biodiesel is $2.99 per gallon. across the street another gas station is selling dino-diesel for $2.75 per gallon. so I went with traditional diesel.

    Buy BioDiesel. Liberal, I'm sure - but it's a good thing "Liberals" like Einstein exist. Together, we make good changes (even if it's bad for corporate. Spend the difference, I plead with you, and support BioDiesel.

    Diesel in Seattle: $3.02 - $3.07 per gallon as of 4/14.
    Biodiesel in Seattle: $3.06 per gallon as of 4/14.
    Would you go bio if it was cheaper, or would the idea of being green turn you off too much?

    Safeway supermarkets are switching to B20 around seattle. I've fueled at West Seattle and Kenmore. About $3.00/gal with card. Can't get more mainstream than that.

    This really is going off topic, but I'll briefly say: There are people who've done it successfully for thousands of miles.

    If the fuel is good quality, I'm quite certain it's ok to run in a PD. There are issues with water and other impurities in improperly made BD, fouling up the high pressure unit injectors, moreso than with regular distributor pump diesels. I believe VW has issued a warning against BD even in Euro PD units, but I'm not sure on this. I'll let someone else chime in, but let's keep this on topic. Youre really better off resolving that question in another thread.

    Us DC area residents need to bring a B100 station to the area. Has anyone ever talked to the Pentagon people about doing so?

    Save yourself about $2500 and go to http://www.b100supply.com . Same results with a much smaller investment.

    In MPLS there is a co-op. They will even deliver upto 40 gal by bike.

    Thats ******* dope. I've been looking for a B100 place around here for days now. I think the thing to do for me was get a 50 gal drum and fill'er up. I live down in mankato, MN. so thats the best thing for me to do. That and support the co-op. Good stuff


  29. 11-07-2005 01:43 AM #29
    In Portland there's a few....I'm a bit partial to either the b20 at Jubitz or the b99 in Linton at the shell station......

    BTW- we pay $3.20/gal and dino-diesel (I like that) is as low as $2.75.....More for political reasons, and to be the smug hippie that I am...

    B20 retail pump in Cleveland, OH:

    Rapid Stop Fuel Station and Convenience Mart at the
    Corner of E. 55th St. and Payne Ave

    This location is convenient to I-90 if you are passing through town.

    I was there yesterday (October 8, 2008) and while they sell diesel, they don't carry BioDiesel. It's also in a really sketchy area.

    I'm visiting Columbus, OH now; where can I get B20 here?

    The Other Hand Biofuels co-op in York, PA.

    Not pay by pump, but pay by subscription. Prices are usually negotiable.

    NOT ASTM CERTIFIED BIODIESEL.

    Found an automated station north of Columbus, OH that sells Diesel and B20 BioDiesel. I was told by a bus driver filling up that pump #10 is the one with B20 and my receipt confirmed it. There was also a pump for 100-something octane gasoline, but I didn't investigate or commit the octane rating to memory.
