Hello Michael

Any diesel will run B100.

I think many people will disagree. This fuel was made from WVO, 
standard production run:

[Biofuel] Biodiesel test results

We've used it at 100% down to -5 deg C, 23 deg F. With a pour-point 
depressant additive it was okay down to -10 to -12 deg C (10-14 deg 
F), it doesn't get any colder than that here. A couple of years ago 
we fitted an Elsbett system and now we don't need the additive and 
use 100% WVO biodiesel all year round. (We were using SVO in the 
summer but we prefer biodiesel to SVO, our main interest in the 
Elsbett system in the first place was better winter use.)
