Bio-D would have less energy but I've found it to be good for the car in other
ways.
This makes me think. The snowmobile club has an old farm tractor we mow the
trails with. Its gotten persnickity in the extreme. I bought some diesel purge
to run through it but I'm wondering if a couple
Back in the day when I tracked mileage carefully I could definitely see
differences in energy content from the fuel at different stations.
There was one Mobil station that was generally the most expensive around but
it'd get 1-2mpg better than most. I also found one place off the highway that
I wonder if it has something to do with the biodiesel content?Sent from my iPhoneOn Oct 22, 2023, at 1:17 PM, Dwight Giles wrote:makes sense. cheapo Sam'sOn Fri, Oct 20, 2023, 11:22 PM Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes wrote:I do not have any specific testing or proof, but it

Is it because there's
Drove the 2014 E250 to BWI Marshall Airport last night. The trip covered
40 highway miles with a fuel economy of 49 mpg. Added a passenger and
three heavy suitcases for the return. Gauge readout was 47.1 mpg for the
80 mile RT.

Other than a being a cetane issue, I can’t see how.
Reminds me of a crazy idea a coworker had: The logic was that in the early
morning, when it’s cooler, you’ll get more gasoline out of the pump because the
gasoline is cooler, and therefore denser, meaning that if you fill up early in

I do not have any specific testing or proof, but it just seems like I
