Biodiesel newb, what needs to be done to the truck to use it?

[Little Red Zuk]

I guess a noob qeustion here: On the older non-Powerstroke 7.3's I hear about replacing the hoses and o-rings...All fuel line hose, and what all o-rings? I have stations around here that sell B-5, and a few that sell B-20, and want to make sure I'm not screwing anything up before using the B-20+

B5 would take a long time to do any harm....
I am not sure what material is used in that motor/truck. The problem is with bio and natural rubbers....
You might want to check out the dieselstop forum. They have a section for pre-psd Fords and I bet you can find out for sure which seals/hose if any, need to be replaced.

The little microbes that feed on diesel seem to like biodiesel a little more so if you are storing the fuel for a while or letting your vehicle sit for a while, you may want to look into a biodiesel anti-microbial treatment.

I've also "heard" the higher % biodiesel ran in late model trucks with cats can have a bad effect on the cat system. I don't have any proof though.
