[Biofuel] Biodiesel, smoking exhausts and fuelling volume levels.

Hi, I have just put my first tank of BioDiesel made from WVO into my Toyota Landcruiser 4.2 Turbo Diesel. My initial impression is that where the car used to produce black smoke due to slight over fuelling under hard acceleration it now doesn't produce much smoke at all with the biodiesel

I also noticed that the black smoke is gone on my 79 300TD, but I am using 50 WVO/50 dyno. I can't make it smoke now.___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel

This is a well documented effect of biodiesel, and some emissions testing places recommend filling up with biodiesel and trying again when an old diesel won't meet emissions any more. I don't enough about diesel engine combustion chemistry to explain why it does this though. Perhaps due to
