Bio diesel is good for diesel engines. B-5, B-20 bio-diesel fuel has more lubricity than straight diesel fuel. Easier on injectors & injection fuel pumps. It pollutes less , emits less soot, making for cleaner air. Stretches out our limited petroleum supply. Indiana is 4 th largest producer of soybeans in the states. Most bio-diesel is made from soybean oil here. Farmer co-ops sell it here. They are not going to sell a fuel to farmers to put in a 200,000 dollar tractor that ruins the engine. Or that trashes the diesel engine in a grain hauling semi truck many farmers have. There are 4 or 5 processing plants making bio-diesel here. Some of them produce soybean meal as a by-product that is excellent feed supplement for chickens & pigs. I would guess 20 -25 % of the 89 million acres of U S soybeans to be planted this month will be put in with tractors running blended bio-diesel fuel. It is a win for the environment, the farmer, the rural economy, folks that breath air.

Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
