This past Wednesday it was $3.25/ gallon because of the road tax. It's really B99. I've heard that Bursaw might be lower the price to around $3.00/gallon soon.

Thanks for the info. ....I run by Acton occasionally. I'll add him to my list in the car.

Dieselgal, if your up there, ask Bursaw Oil to post their information on the Retail Fueling Sites list at www.biodiesel.org if they have not already done so....

Cheers!

Bursaw B100 retail pump is open in Acton, MA!

The Bursaw Oil B100 retail pump opened for business on
Wednesday and is ready for you and all your friends to use whenever
the station is open. Their hours are:

Mon-Fri 6:00am - 8:00pm
Saturday 7:00am - 5:00pm
Sundays (closed)

The price is $3.149 a gallon, 10 cents less than what we have been paying.

Bursaw Oil is located on at 94 Great Road (Rt. 2A) in Acton, MA.
It's just west on Rt. 2A from the traffic circle on Rt. 2 in Concord
near the Concord prison.

Here are a few things to note about using the pump:

1) It's a self-service pump. Everything else at Bursaw is done by
attendants but Jeff Bursaw figures we can handle the pump ourselves.

2) It's located behind the left side of the building as you face it from
the road. You'll need to back into the area near the pump.
It says "B100" in small black letters but they will dress it up.
I'll try to find a Biodiesel logo for it.

3) Go ahead and fill up, then walk to the cashier at the gasoline pumps
to pay.
Remember the amount since they do not see that pump inside.

4) Jeff is trusting us to pay up and pay the right amount. He sees us as a
friendly and trustworthy bunch and I agree so let's do this right.

I was grinning from ear to ear as I fueled up today. I think Jeff was
pleased and amused that I was so happy about this. Many thanks to Jeff,
Mark, and Nick at Bursaw Oil and to all of you for supporting this.

Spread the word - B100 is available at retail in the greater Boston area!

dieselgal....Thanks for keeping us posted! Its great that they are now pumping Monday through Saturday. It was tough for me to time a trip up that way on Wednesdays when they had B100 available.
Cheers,
