On the other hand, here's another post about some bad fuel that is being sold: http://forums.biodieselnow.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=640&whichpage=1
read towards the bottom of the first page and then follow the next few. This is about Re-Fine LLC "brand" fuel being sold in pre-packaged pails at some small general stores in the mountains in Colorado (for an outrageous price!). the fuel turned out to have glycerine or particulates in the bottom of the pails and the person at "Re-Fine, LLC" came up with a very poor excuse for what it was, claiming he fired a plant manager for quality control issues, then claiming it wasn't glycerine but vegetable oil residue in the pails", which is just about as bad of a quality control issue as "not washing" (only reason glycerine would be in there in such amounts). It is not clear in this post if this is a legitimate producer or some entrepreneur who talked unwitting store owners into buying some of-spec homebrew. I am taking a personal interest in this because one of the people who has had problems with the stuff is a friend of mine who just moved out there and is quite committed to 'doing the right thing' by using biodiesel. So if anyone has further information, or a sample to send me (a pint or so) please let me know offlist. This is the kind of situation we need to avoid. Part of the problem is that if he WAS a homebrewer/bootlegger, he is apparently posing as a legitimate business (and didn't follow even the most basic accepted quality control standards!). He did not answer questions about ASTM testing. This type of thing is much more avoidable if we do more public education about fuel in general, so that people have more of an idea of what to look for. take care, mark ------------------------ Yahoo!
