hey what are you biodiesel homebrewers get for mpg?

My mileage goes down about 2-3 mpg on b100. If I blend I get a much less noticable hit. I average about 19 mpg-turboed 2h moving a lot of mass and weight.

I get between 20-25mpg in mine, down slightly from petrol mileage when I first got it. I would like to put in a set of fresh injectors.

I using B99 I get 20 city, 25 highway. 28 if I'm patient and drive 100kph (~62)

I can't wait till I have overdrive so I can get similar mileage going a bit faster.

I have reached 31 highway 22 city with good old dino diesel. I also use an addative every fill. Some of the best diesel is made @ the refineries here in western Canada.

Western Canadain ULSD already contains biodiesel as a lubricity additive.
