    This list has most BD stations in the US:

    My nearest source AFAIK is in the Dallas / Ft. Worth Texas area.

    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.

    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?

    damn your lucky! I took a trip on 95 this weekend and called Taylor Oil, which has a B100 station on 95, and they were selling B100 for $3.96. Bull****!

    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


  25. 11-07-2005 01:43 AM #25
    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.

    If only I lived someplace better than Miami! The nearest biodiesel is an hour and a half away, and I'm paying more than $3/gal right now. I may be constructing myself something soon.

    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.

    BC (British Columbia), Canada

    Regular dino, B5, B10, and B20 all in a retail pump.

    Opened January 26 2006.

    Autogas Propane 10128 Nordel Court in Delta B.C., just south of the Alex Fraser Bridge and off of Nordel Way

    So far B20 is consistently 2 cents cheaper than regular diesel (per litre), and B10 1 cent less. B5 0.5 cent less.

    Citgo, Paint Street Chillicothe. Well lit, clean, friendly people. Also sold right next to racing Fuel - must be telling us something!

    UPDATE: No longer selling bio - soy is too expensive to process, and all the schools have the contracts locked up. The only place even remotely near is Circleville Ohio with the Circleville Oil Depot on mound Street by the railroad tracks. Price is good as of 6/9/08: $4.35 versus $4.79 everywhere else.
