Hi,
I guess you don't live in Europe. I just read in the local paper that over
50% of the automobiles sold to date in 2002 in Spain were Diesels. Also, due
to the life style generally seen in Europe, many of these are used for
relatively short runs. Some are actually designed as 'city cars.'

sounds like the truth of this is what you're researching), but also it's

With biodiesel it can be a problem that it does not burn out. A smaller
nozzle for a shorter flame and if possible higher pressure, could fix it.
You will probably get a 20-30% lower heating capacity from your burner, but
they are mostly 2-3 times over sized anyway. It will run longer periods
