Which is a more credible source of technical information? Anthony
Response:
The article states that soot emmisions are greater for biodiesel than for diesel. I was under the impression that lower solids emissions included the free carbon. I am switching my mercedes over to biodiesel as well as my home heating. Just wanted to know if this was an error on the part of Readers digest or Have I missinterpreted the data from biodiesel.org.
