any one running grease in ther truck?

[Tyler1]

I have a 2007 5. 9 and im looking to save some money by running a 50/50 mix of grease and diesel

I filter the grease through a 1 micron sock filter and this wroks fine for my Mercedes and my kaiser but im not so sure about that common rail.

Any feed back or FACTS would be greatOo.

I don't think it would be a good idea.

Good luck...

Seriously, Keep the home-brew for the tractors and older low pressure fuel systems. . the CR may attack your wallet on chicken grease. .

AMEN to that!!! There is too much rail pressure to use that concoction. The high rail pressure turns the stuff into solids.

crap! k thx guys

Iv heard from other ppl that it will clog my filters up but as long as i keep them swaped that i would be ok... ... ... ... .

If you want to use "grease", learn to make bio diesel from it and mix it with diesel fuel. Personally, it may be OK for the old Mercedes, but I wouldn't think of using it in a CR engine. The downside is just too expensive.

They don't recommend using any home made bio

in a cr. People have tried it and. Cost them a

lot of money for repairs.

I've been mixing home brew for my '06 for almost 3 years straight and not one single problem that wasn't my error. (knock on wood) I over estimated once and had too high of a percentage whiched cause gelling on a cold Alaska morning. The commonrail handled up to 60% used veggie without any hiccups. If you want more info let me know.
