Most other Diesels (non Bosch) still use steel return lines, as in

Nope. There are lots of other mfgr. of injection pumps bedsides Bosch.

Kiki (Bosch Licensee)

You shoulda been able to find the line at Frod or Shovey dealerships

Alex,
Where you live is exactly where I was when the hoses went (north
Vancouver), but I didn't think of that!
I went to Diesel Fuel Injection Services in north Portland. My fuel
economy increased by 5mpg with new injector return lines (27mpg on the
way up to Portland, 32mpg on the way back
Doesn't nearly everything use Bosch though? Maybe I've had an
un-realistic sample, but ALL of the non-mercedes diesel vehicles I've
owned used the same line:
-a 4 cylinder heavy duty/industrial diesel boat engine (Diesel KIKI
injection system)
-2 Chevy 6.2 suburbans (Standyne injection system

Yep, but I had a 1,000 mile drive the next day, and didn't want to pour
50 gallons of diesel fuel onto the freeway during the drive home so an
online order wasn't an option.
Also, the hose on Rusty's site lacks length information. For all I know,
that's the price per inch!

return line is mainly used on automotive diesels made in Germany and
Japan and a few small Japanese tractor and industrial engines.

hi Tyler!
i've got an '85 300D that i've had on almost exclusively
commercially purchased B99.9 for 5 years and over 50K miles.
i decided when i first got the car that i'd be watching the fuels

Ernest,
What car do you have running biodiesel on the original hoses, and how
long have you been running it?
It seems like even regular diesel fuel dissolves fuel lines on a regular
basis, so it's hard to tell which leaks are caused by Bio, and which
would have occurred anyways. I have howev
hi Larry!
wish i could see this article; it seems the confusion and
misinformation related to "Grease", Waste Veggie Oil (WVO) and BioDiesel
as perpetuated by bad reporting continues,...
nothing runs on "Grease"; it simply doesn't flow at ambient
temperatures in most parts of the world
Anyone who burns wvo or makes BioD is subject to state and federal
road tax if they use any of it on the highway. There are no
exemptions I am aware of for minor users. There have been quite a
few people busted for not paying taxes.
Same scenario 200+ years ago that caused the whiskey rebel
I read this today in a parts industry magazine I get - they talk about
laws in Cal to prevent (or at least fine) people converting from diesel to
grease! Like a License to be a "diesel fuel supplier" and report gallons
used and pay taxes on them. Additionally, the "Meat & Poultry Inspecti
