    This is not true when burning other fuels via combustion
    So, you want to talk about Diesel engines and diesel fuel (blaming the oil companies earlier) but now you say you don’t mean diesel fuel but something else.

    Make up your mind! I’m starting to think you’re the love shield of Seany and Beany.

      I currently drive one of their diesel engined cars (<2years old) and the manual specifically excludes the use of 100% bio diesel.

      Just to be clear to your falsehoods, PSA do NOT say that under no circumstances are you to use biodiesel in their engines. They are perfectly happy for biodiesel to be used in their engines in Norway and Sweden.

        Maybe we should look closer to home then...
        Biofuel Cars | Alternative Fuels for Cars - Citroen UK

        Citroen (part of PSA) say their cars in the UK will run on biodiesel

        And since 2011, all diesel cars sold in the EU (that currently includes the UK) must be capable of running at least B7 biodiesel...

            Thinking realling idsn't your game is it.

            What does E10 (petrol) and B7(diesel) fuel consists of. As you have quoted these standards I am sure you know without looking that up. Or perhaps not as you quoted this standard as an argument that modern diesels cannot run on 100% biofuel. So I will save you the trouble of thinking and doing your own research (something which you are clearly incapable of) and tell you

            E10 contains 10% Ethanol - hence the E10 label and 90% unleaded petrol

            B7 contains 7% FLAME ( Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) and 93% diesel oil - Hence the B7 name.

            So neither of these fuels are actually biofuels are they. they just contain small amount of bio fuel. and hence still produce the same pollutants.


            I will restate my original statement.

            A diesel engine run on 100% biofuel produces no harmful pollutants however modern diesel engines cannot be run on 100% biodiesel. 100% biodiesel is 100% made from oil extracted from vegetable matter (normally seeds) NOT as the EU would have you believe 95% diesel oil

              For the avoidance of any doubt as stated in my 2016 Peugeot 308 handbook


              "The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European Standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard EN590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN14214) available at the pumps (containing upto 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) B30 biofuel can be used in certain diesel engines. However, this use, even occasional, requires strict application of the special servicing conditions. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. The use of any other type of biofuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure, or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel system)"

              So there you have it a modern PSA diesel engine, two and a half years old, cannot be run on anything like 100% biodiesel made from vegetable oils. I restate my original argument that is the problem lies not with the diesel engine but with the oil companies. A good old fashioned diesel engine could run on almost anything - including farts. We need to wind the clock back 15 years and run our diesels on biofuels.

                Excellent, you agree - your car can run on B7 biodiesel. I never said anything about 100%. You're doing the old brexity thing of "if I don't like the answer, change the question".

                  B87 isn't Biodiesel. Something that consists of 93% Diesel oil should not be called biodiesel under the trade descriptions act. Why do you think that the oil companies don't refer to it as biodiesel at the fuel pumps on their forecourts but merely refer to is a B7. It's another EU con.

                    Whgy then do the diesel engine manufacurers state in their documentation that under no circumstances are you to use bio diesel.

                    Did I say that all Diesel engines could be run all the time on 100% biodiesel with no long term issues? No, I certainly did not.
                    ...
                    And finally... can you provide a list of Diesel engine manufacturers who state that under no circumstances are you to use biodiesel in their engines.

                    You're the one obsessed with defining biodiesel as being 100% SVO, never blended and never WVO.

                    I just stated that you don't know what you're talking about.

                      Biodiesel is NOT 93% diesel oil. You start selling B7 and advertising as Biodiesel and see how far you get with trading standards.
