Hi,
I would like to run a Kia Carnival on biodiesel. Does anybody know
what problems I might face? Do I risk to ruin the engine?
Cheers

Well, it should be the same as any other newer direct injection
diesel. Typically these don't have any trouble on high quaility
biodiesel, but often have problems with lower quaility biodiesel
(unwashed fuel, glycerin in the fuel, or incompletely reacted
fuel). I don't have any specific experience
I found the following forum for Kia owners that has threads on the engine and at least one thread on biodiesel:

If Kia sold diesels in the US, I would probably consider one...What
I've found is that just about anything sold in the US with a gas engine

arguement that they use here

Exactly. I still want the toyota made VW Taro that we had in
Africa. Way better (fuel consumption, as well as off road
handling and load capacity) than the toyota tacoma available here in
the US.On 10/18/05, Mike Weaver [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
