We have a couple older Pisten Bully snowcats with that exact same motor, and while we haven't run any of them on biodiesel yet, I find it hard to believe it would kill them. Those are tough engines (we've got one with 10,000 hours on it) that get worked hard, so I can only imagine some high lubricity fuel would make them happy. We've got a spare engine, and my dad and I are playing with the idea of a WVO generator...
