Performance and Usage
Stanadyne Automotive Corp., the largest diesel fuel injection equipment manufacturer in the United States, supports, "...the use of a low blend of biodiesel in the entire U.S. diesel pool," for lubricity.
Diesel engines rely on fuel for lubricity. Biodiesel provides superior lubricity using B2 biodiesel increases fuel lubricity up to 66%. Other advantages of biodiesel include:

• Longer equipment life.

• Lower maintenance costs.

• Less equipment downtime.

• Protection against fuel injector and injection pump failure.
• U.S. Department of Agriculture tests show below freezing temperatures can be tolerated by B20 blends and lower.

• Biodiesel has the highest BTU of any renewable fuel (in the range between No. 1 and No. 2 diesel).
