#43 of 48 Running B99 Biodiesel by jmorganflowers Mar 04, 2009 (7:46 pm)
I just bought a 2005 Liberty and plan on using B99 Biodiesel in South Florida. I have had great success with my 2001 Freightliner FL70 3126 Cat.   The secret to success with Biodiesel is slow intergration and filter changing. 5%, 10%, 20%, 99% This process took me 3 months to do.   Is there anything I should know with the Jeeps operation on B99?

#46 of 48 BioDiesel.......I got the answer! by jmorganflowers Apr 11, 2009 (11:42 am)
Dear Gang,    Let me tell you what happened with the BioDiesel in my 2005 Liberty. I went to the store and out of the blue lost 90% of the engines power. However, when I put it in neutral I got 3-4000 rpm.    This is a sign that the BioDiesel is cleaning out the system. At this point my buddy who has been a diesel mechanic for 30 years said to shut it down before the glow plugs melt.    I changed the filter. It ran fine again. Remember....carry an extra filter and one pint of BioDiesel (in a non-plastic container) in the Jeep.    If anyone has questions, please feel free to contact me.    After a Cat3126 in my FL70 and the Jeep CRD I think I get it by now.

Replying to: slowzuki2003 (Aug 20, 2009 4:27 pm) Hi slowzuki2003, Some oil additives seem to migrate through the hose material. There is nothing to worry about besides getting your hands dirty.
