South MS dieselheads!

Not really about MB, but is sort of related:

hoping to find folks in coastal Miz'sippi area interested in forming a co-op to make/obtain biodiesel...

Also am looking for front bumper/fairing for my 300TD wagon

thanks
tami

I'd heard something to that effect...

...thanks for the news article.

Even so, I'm not seeing bio-D at the local pumps. Nearest is Mobile, and that's only 20%

Next closest is Pensacola, two hours. Natchez is more like three and a half hr or so.

I guess nobody down here wants to mess with it. I would cook my own, but I'm in a flood zone and I just don't believe it would be conscionable to have nasties like methoxide laying around. Therefore the wish for a co-op. On higher ground, that is.

Hi Tami. Why don`t you run WVO like the setup of mine you saw at the GTG in Gulfport? I`ve had no problems and don`t have to mess with chemicals. Just a thought, KM

Hey!

You likin' that greasecar, huh? It is kewl as can be.

I'd do that in a minute, but:
1. Stella is awfully immaculate, and I don't want to perform surgery on her (not that it's much, but I just balk at it.);
2. I need the space, which is why I bought a wagon to begin with.

That place in P'cola is prolly my best option. Just get a drum or two, fill, bring home, pump out to auto.
