If you are looking to run high blends of biodiesel in your furnace, SeQuential recommends Portland Green Heat (http://www.portlandgreenheat.com/) - they have a ton of experience upgrading furnaces.

I have made biodiesel for family and friends to heat with for several years and it works well. Farmers are using it on an increasing basis in their equipment also. We have hand no problems with the standard Suntec pumps over this time,but follow this link to an article on a webster pump with viton seals designed to run B100: http://www.biodieselmagazine.com/article.jsp?article_id=746. Good luck. I hope more people start using and promoting biodiesel. I am glad to see more people using high concentrations of biodiesel to replace petroleum.

Although no one in my area sells bio fuel, I am still using fossil fuel and wood combined to heat my home. I am also off setting the high cost of energy by investing into solar energy companies Like "First Solar" (FSLR) bought 6 shares and made $359.00 last week. This amount brings my overall energy costs down and helps the solar companies get bigger and I feel good about that.
