    Keystone Oil is at the intersection of Slatehill and Gettysburg. right down the street from Pizza Grille (right by trinity highschool)

    Is there like some conspiracy preventing to from getting into the LV area?

    I mean with 3 fairly big cities in the area with a lot of trucks running through all the way from a light to heavy construction & semis. You think with all the diesel usage it be a gold mine.

    Every pump is like an hour away from me and I would to use it but I'm not driving that far. IT IS MADNESS!

    Pacific Biofuel distributes B100 to two stations in our small beach town, and also sells direct in 55 and 250 gal containers. Fuel meets ASTM Specification D6751-02.

    U.S.A Fueling Station at the corner of Seventh Avenue and Soquel says that their B100 is actually B99. (station changed hands -- no more biodiesel)

    The former Union 76 station at Ocean Street and Soquel Avenue has been tentatively renamed EcoDepot, and will also offer electric bike sales and organic produce. They will sell only BioDiesel, no gasoline or conventional diesel.

    Mountain Feed and Farm Supply in Ben Lomond claims to be the world's only solar-powered biodiesel filling station.

    Energy Alternative Solutions is the main importer of biodiesel to Santa Cruz County. They are building a huge plant in Watsonville to product B100 from waste cooking oil (yellow oil). The capacity of the new plant is millions of gallons per year.

    As of summer 2006, EAS was importing 27,000 gals/month of B100 from Texas.

    Two of the county's school systems are running pilot programs for their oldest buses to run biodiesel. The local distributer for Budwieser is now using biodiesel in their fleets.

    There is now a few dozen acres mustard seed farm in the county supplying mustard seed oil to the local biodiesel refinery for conversion to fuel for sale at the station on Ocean St. I always thought the french fry smell needed seasoning...

    In Franklin, TN (outside of Nashville), I found a station with 80/20 Biodiesel. I was afraid to try it, especially since the savings was only 5 cents.

    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.

    All the diesel fuel in Northern Illinois is B11.
    I've checked with BP/Shell Mobil/Road Ranger and all that they have is B11. Now I have to buy my fuel in Wisconsin, as I will only want to use D2. In my 2005 PD TDI.

    i havent seen many - its sad since we are surrounded by corn

    i know there is a struggle in rockford to build an ethanol plant

    i know in rockford and schaumburg areas there are no biodiesel spots

    however heading west into the quad cities there are a few truck stops with various blends the highest being B20 though

    Boiler Up!

    Make it three yards mother****er and we'll have an automobile race

B20, for $4.36, Premium DinoDiesel for $4.38I was also playing around on mapquest and you can select the gas button to get gas prices in different areas. They also do biodiesel and E85.

    Why in the Hell would you want to use Bio-Diesel when it is over $5.00 a gal and is worse for the Envirement then Reg Diesel , think about that

    Wrong. Now as far as food prices and the cultivation of the materials... You must remember, that unlike E85, Biodiesel can be made from recycled materials. Thank you, come again.

    Biodiesel's only drawback is more NOX emissions. Everything else is lowered considerably......

    Algae and Jatropha are 2 alternatives to the food vs. fuel debate. Jatropha can be grown on arid land, negating the use of fertile soils used for food. And over time, Jatropha can fill that land with nutrients as well.

    Algae can be cultivated in many places, but I'm told it is still in it's infancy regarding oil conversion. If I am incorrect, share the wealth.

    hey. is b100 ok to use in 1.6L diesel 82 caddy? It has the vegie oil conversion on it too. should I put the B100 in the vegie tank or I can put it in normal OEM diesel tank? and how much is it in Milton?

    Any bio pumps in or around Oshawa?

    In Tucson, AZ:

    KubotaPowered mentioned Arizona Petroleum at 1015 South Cherry. They have B5, B20 and B99.

    It seems Roadrunner has stopped supplying the Go Go Mart at Broadway & Plumer. Shame -- that was good stuff.

    There's a new one though: at a Shell station, of all places: 1701 N. Alvernon Way. B99.

    There's also a B99 station at the Catalina Mart at 12030 N. Dove Mountain Blvd. in Marana.

    Haven't tried either of these last two.

    There are also a couple of WVO cooperatives in the area. A friend operates one, but they're running at full capacity.
