Key IssuesKey Issues
Ensure the biodiesel meets the ASTM specification for pure biodiesel (ASTM D 6751) before blending with petrodiesel.Check fuel filters on the vehicles and in the delivery system frequently upon initial biodiesel use, and change them necessary.

Key IssuesKey Issues
Be aware of biodiesel's cold weather properties and take precautions as with #2 petrodiesel use in cold weather.Be aware of biodiesel's compatibility with engine components.Biodiesel is a solvent - wipe surfaces if spills occur.

Other storage systemsOther storage systems
Other materials are available, but steel is and always has been used for the storage of fuels.Steel tanks have always included alternate fuels such as ethanol and biodiesel in their warranties – leaving no doubt that steel is the material of choice

RegulationsRegulations
What are states doing?– Some issued cautionary statements to
clean tanks before adding ethanol– Midwest states addressed eqpt
requirements for E85 & biodiesel.– IA & others have mandatory “checklist”
when converting to E85– See “reference materials” for a list of
state web sites on alternate fuels.
