Seems it is easier to refine all oils to meet a diesel standard, rather than build a sloppy slow engine with difficult starting properties that will run on all sorts of stuff......

Minnesota passed a law that will phase in biodiesel as soon as a few conditions are met (refining capacity for soy-oil, etc.) with a 2% blend, soon to go to 5%. A lot of farmers are already ordering it here in MN, from their coops. There is some question about Jelling in a cold winter, but otherwise it works fine. Soybean promoters (if you sell soybeans, you've paid a promotion fee to them) have done millions of miles on soy oil - both blends & straight. It will be as common as ethanol in a few years - 99% of the pimps in Minnesota are a blen of gas & ethanol now.
