You should only worried about clogging fliters when you run b100 or b50. Biodiesel is a slovent and cleans your whole motor internally. Diesel is very dirty and when you run biodiesel for the time fpr the first 1000 miles the dirty crap will start clogging the filter. You shouldnt have to change it for 5000 or more after that. Its always a good idea to have a spare .


Running B100
It takes more engery to burn biodiesel so it burns faster, you loose mpg, but not much. You need to turn up for fuel screw a bit til it smokes a decent amount full throttle. I would advise to turn it back down once you use regular diesel cause you would smoke alot. If you have an old injection pump your seal may start to leak after or two, may last longer. You can get the pump rebuilt with vition seals. Change out your return lines to vition also.
