tried it again recently, about 2 liters w/ about 20 liters or so of diesel in my tank so that's about 10% more or less. Wala talagang noticeable effect in terms of power and acceleration. Siguro dahil sa I don't push my engine to the limits naman e. Well behaved diesel driver naman ako e. I try to keep my RPM at 1800-2500 range. Seldom ako mag 3000 RPM. Sa highway driving lang. Sa usok naman, I don't notice it. With or without cocodiesel, wala naman ako masyado usok pag nakawarm up na engine ko.

From the posts of our fellow forumers, mukhang mas dramatic ang effect nya sa mga indirect inject engines. Ewan lang kung tama assesment ko, siguro dahil sa mas gumaganda combustibility ng diesel sa indirect inject engines pag merong cocodiesel. By nature naman kasi mas maganda engine response ng direct inject dahil sa higher compression ratio ng DI engine -- Doc Diesel, tama ba tong analysis na to?

anyways, I'll PM you later about this.

Ok, I tried using Biodiesel on an Isuzu Hilander XTRM and a Mitusbishi Adventure. (2 liters of Biodiesel in a full tank).

Adventure:
There was a lot less vibration, especially during cold morning start ups. And more so when the engine is heated up. Except for the diesel engine noise, I'd think I was riding in a car. So far, I need to check on the mileage. 'Hatak' was also noticeably better; Its a lot easier to rev the engine, konting tapak lang, angat na ang tacometer.

Hilander XTRM:
I immediately noticed that the really bad smell went away, during the initial cold start up (mabaho talaga, yung amoy matapang na diesel nawala). And the engine vibration lessened a lot. Hatak improved a lot too, parang bago ang dating kapag nag rev. Well smoke is still present though... probably needs a few more fills of Biodiesel.

Ey peeps! While we are all enjoying the good effects of biodiesel, i think it would also help to browse one of the articles i found on Betan's website with regard to FIE (Fuel Injection Equipment) manufacturers' position on this. Basically it states na sometimes d ren recommended kapag sobra sa 5% standard ang mixture natin...so i suggest we comply with what the label on each 1liter container that we buy says because it also has its harmful effects on our fuel injection systems. Opinion lang! 80)

Have the same observation with my '99 Adventure

Only,

i use 3 liters per tank full and my fuel economy seems to have improved 1.5 kms per liter in the city. :cool:

had my emissions last Feb w/o biodiesel. Balak ko pa re-test with

I jist got my delivery from sharkis yesterday. Inorder ko carbouy para mas mura

Initially I put 1 liter of biodiesel in my 96 pajero (papacarbon clean ko sana kasi medyo mausok) less than 1/4 na pala sa gauge.

Waalaa!!! No smoke at all after 1 minute... I reved it even at 3K RPM nawala talaga. Am planning to go to edsa later to really test it.

Can't wait to try it on our delivery trucks...

Galing talaga!!!
