anybody know about this stuff?

I run Bio as often as possible, usually B20. I travel all over the 48 states and there are sometimes when it just isn't available and I have to settle for plain old #2.
I've been looking for some sort of Soy additive in a bottle that I could add to #2 for those times so that I could still see the increased lubricity of Bio.
I found this stuff on Ebay, sorry I don't know how to post the link but the item number is #7622176630 called Bio-Power Soy based fuel conditioner.
Anybody know anything about this stuff? Is this what I've been looking for?

Re: anybody know about this stuff?

I tracked down the manufacturer's website HERE.

The ebay ad doesn't say if it's their summer formula or winter formula.

Summer (PDF)

Winter (PDF)

I don't really see anything on their site that says it's isn't just B100 (really expensive, at $32/gallon!) with maybe some anti-gel additive thrown in.

Re: anybody know about this stuff?

You could go to COstco and get some of their 35 pound soy oil containers. I run that at 50-50 and both my PSD's love it. Throw a few containers in the back of your truck and you are good to go.

Well I bought a quart of it, I'll do some more investigation when I have the bottle in my hands.
They said 1 gallon treats 2,000 gallons of fuel? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] Then it should stand to reason that a quart will treat 500 gallons of fuel right? I would think that there has to be something to it other than just B100 if it is that strong of concentrate?

Just adding soy oil from a bottle? Just like what is on the grocery store shelves?
Is that the same as what is put into soy diesel? That sounds to easy, it's gotta be more complicated than that 'cuz I don't have that kind of luck. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
