Rocklin, CA – Rocklin Clean Fuel Point – Thursday, April 23rd

Bud is hoping for a Propel station in Nevada County, but until then, he’s happy to fill his Ford F-250 with biodiesel in Rocklin.

“People have told me that it runs more quietly now that I’ve been using biodiesel — less knocks,” says Bud.

Biodiesel does enhance engine lubricity, making diesel engines run more smoothly. Many drivers testify to a smoother, quieter ride with biodiesel fuel.

    It does run quieter for sure. Just don’t tell Ford. Unfortunately, the manufacturers will void your warranty if they find out you’re running bio. Chevrolet ‘allows’ a 5% mixture and no more.

    Michael,

    Just to clarify your statement- The biodiesel blend Propel sells in California is approved under Ford warranty.
