In the course of an hour, I saw the price of diesel go up 15 cents yesterday from $3.30 to $3.45. Did anyone else notice this where they live? What is up with that?

Greeeaaat. I gotta fill my truck today. There goes another c-note. irate:
Regular is $3.09 to $3.19 here. Diesel is running about $0.40 more and E-85 is $0.30 less than Regular. I paid $2.99 for premium less than a week ago.
OOOP'S, I blinked and it is no $3.69. This is really getting bad..:frustrado
Yup, one of the big problems with veggie based Bio-Diesel is that it gels up at much higher temperatures than dino-based diesel. Anti-Gel is a must, we had problems with fuel lines clogging because there is almost no way to keep a fuel line warm between the fuel tank and the engine. Anti-Gel works wonders to keep the fuel flowing. Before I retired we used Power Service conditioner/anti-gel in the fleet, it works very well. One year before we started using Power Service, when temps got below -10 F we'd mix in some kerosene too. Not emissions legal, but no inspector in his right mind was out inspecting emissions when the temps drop below -10 F anyway.You can also add additives so it wont gel up.
Are you brewing, RedRocker? Those kits look pretty good.
