Peter, Unfortunately you are partially correct :( There truly are some "backyard" biodieselers out there that have no clue what ASTM spec means.
However, TG they are the exception and not the rule. Biodiesel has approximately the same "shelf life" as petro diesel if manufactured and then stored correctly. Running a vehicle totally on WVO, not WVO transesterfied into Biodiesel? Now that scares me. But, there are thousands of people who do it ?????
