WOAH!!! Time OUT!! Bio-Diesel has a HIGHER lubrication ability than regualr diesel.
Also, mixtures of Bio-D and regular diesel of up to 20% is supposed ot be safe for older vehicles with "natural rubber" fuel system parts.
New vehicles in the US (post 1996-ish) use a synthetic rubber in all fuel related parts and can handle 100% bio-D.
However, bio-D is a natural solvent and will clean your entire fuel system of crud, so expect a few plugged fuel filters at first.
