I think he meant E85, Ethanol. Do not use E85 in your CRD, it is not diesel. E85 is not the same as B85, which you will probably never see.
B2, B5, B20 are the most common biodiesel blends around. I have been using B5-B20 on my CRD and have had no problems.

What is the weblink for the CRD Diesel forum? I have a 2005 Jeep Liberty Diesel. I have only had a few problem until the other day my truck would not start at all. The diesel mechanic is out of town so I am waiting to find out what the problem is. I have 36,000 miles on it.

There are several CRD discussions here in the Jeep Liberty and Jeep Liberty Diesel group. It sounds like you may want to start in the Jeep Liberty Diesel Maintenance and Repair one.

I have a late 2006 w/11,000 miles on it in michigan. Does the cold weather play a significant role? I have not gotten better than 20mpg since the day I bought it. I do almost all highway (75mph). I did take it to the dealer and they just checked the computer for errors. I think it has the f37 update. Fuel has been ULSD B2 and Dino mix. Also using Amsoil oil and fuel concentrate. Anybody know of a good dealership here in Detroit?

This type of engine will cost you ~20% more to operate during the cold season. The same applies to other recent common rail vehicles, including trucks. I think it's due to the way NOx is evaluated by the lambda sensor. When the air is colder you have a greater content of oxygen per unit of volume. Older diesels don't refer to a lambda sensor and give you a steady mileage all year round. I have close to 60,000 miles and the truck works like new besides a few dents

Synlubes, I did this while swinging the truck attached at the end of 20 foot chain. I was pulling and aligning timber to form a nice pile of wood 
The bodywork will cost me much less than the price I would have to pay to clean a piece of land. At least, I use this truck!

Just returned from 712 mile trip with average FE for the trip at 29.52 MPG (65-68 mph). After 7,500 miles on ULSD I can find no real difference in overall average FE between LSD and ULSD, 24.47 before and 24.42 after.
