Hi all 

I have been a member for almost a year now.
I put a small processor together last winter and started brewing small batches.

My truck ran great with no problems , I gradually increased the % blend 
for about 2 months and when I was warm enough I started running 100%

I changed out my filter a couple of times  and all seemed great. 
I had made a few trips to Nevada  and Southern Utah with out a single problem.

Then In July I went camping and was towing My 28ft trailer 
everything was great until I got to the top of Fairview canyon  "just over 9000 Ft"

After that it was all down hill. The Truck started running like crap it wouldn't rev over 2000 RPM's and would blow white smoke like crazy if I would try to accelerate. 
I made to to camp unhooked the trailer and drove down to Fairview,
even then it still was running like crap  so I topped it off with Petrodiesel and that  fixed the Problem. "not Cool"  I haven't ran b-100 since.
I sure would like to run B-100 again. ( At least until it gets to cold )

does any one have any suggestions  ?

My Thoughts are the air/fuel mixture with the computer.


I wish I could have made it to the Demo for the BioPro 190 
I do a lot of automation at my Job, so this unit has sparked some interest
I would love to see it sometime .

Thanks
