Hi David,

    Thanks for your up-date. Although I will be interested to know how you
feel about it after a little more use!
    I have tried Diesel several times in the past, and was not happy. True
it was not Bio-diesel. It seems it just got so very nasty after a short
time, leaving a film and grunge on everything. I would never use it for
automatic transmissions or carburetors, etc.
    What I use now is a re-cycled door to door delivered "National Brand" (I
don't want to drop my guy in the grease). I own my washer and just buy a
drum off the truck, as he stops next door. I pay $35.00 bucks for 15 gallons
of it and he picks up the old stuff.....................does the driver
report the sale?????? I figure the pick up alone is worth it! Keeps the EPA
weasels away from the door.
    Keep us posted, the Bio may be different, but in the long run, you still
got to dispose of the old.

Howard
