Awesome the chemical process in your truck generates platinum!  Or, is

Subject: It's cold in Texas

I had my first Biodiesel backlash this week.  The temperature dropped
into the teens the past couple of days and my truck steady lost speed.
 Driving home on Wednesday night, the temp started at 38F and dropped to
23F.  As the temp dropped, so did my top speed, from 65mph to about
20mph.  I thought that the fuel had started to gel so I mixed in 50%
diesel #2.  That didn't solve the problem.  Next morning it was the same
story.

So, I had heard that Biodiesel will clean out your tank and fuel lines
pretty good as it's got a solvent like property.  So I decided to change
out my fuel filter.  Viola!  That did the trick.  I got curious and
decided to open up the filter and see what kind of cleaning it had
done:

I'm curious as too how much more will be cleaned out as these filters
are $45 a pop and a bitch to change out.
