<x-charset ISO-8859-1>Griffin's fuel is unusable as B100 in most climates in the winter, at least the samples of it that I've seen so far. It forms crystals at 45F, which are big enough to block onboard fuel filters. Even in the San Francisco Bay Area, a very mild climate, it's too gel-prone for our winters.
It also resists anti-gel additives. If you had some sort of fuel heater you'd be fine, but it's tough stuff. Localy we've had peopel try and blend it with soy biodiesel at something like a 1/4 griffin to 3/4 soy ratio, which was still somewhat iffy as Bay Area winter fuel. It's been independently tested to be great ASTM quality fuel though- it's just not good wintertime B100.
