Hoping is a good choice of words! hehehehe, I have added diesel or bio-d to my VO tank, sometimes before and sometimes after VO. I live in 'the mountains' so a little spirited driving up and down and around the curves, combined w/plenty of hope, may get me blended pretty good.

I experiment w/blends, etc. using gatorade bottles I place in the back of the truck. They seal up pretty good and can stand quite a bit of abuse while still being able to see thru them. I was very suprised at how little 'mixing' takes place during normal driving. The fuel sloshes back and forth, but very little top to bottom agitation takes place. I have traveled thousands of miles w/cubies and found stuff that still managed to settle out of VO!
