NIce work on the biodiesel, Frank!  Have been researching that.

Joined TDIClub, thanks for the info.  Looks like a good resource.  Funny
how the threads are similar to the Vanagon list!

So, you are happy with the Wagen?  Is there a mileage difference using
biodiesel as opposed to diesel from the pump?
