It's almost summertime, and for those of us in the Arizona desert that means

I looked at importing a vehicle from Europe to the US about two years

vehicle, then you must transport it here, next you must get it

to register it.
'diesel' model airplane engines are diesels in the sense that they
operate in the same principal, but they run on a much lighter fuel so
that it will ignite. They cannot run on 'dino' diesel, biodiesel, or SVO.

I believe that you will find the viscosity of biodiesel to be less
compatible with the oil feed system of the lube resevoir than you think.
Chances are very good that it will flow too readily unless modified.
Also, you will probably find that the lower viscosity will mean that
biodiesel will
