BIODIESEL FUEL
Biodiesel has unique qualities that should be considered before it is used in the Kubota D722 diesel engine. During
cold weather, plugged fuel lines, plugged fuel systems, hard starting, and other unknown failures can result from use
of this fuel.
Biodiesel is an excellent medium for microbial growth and contamination. Microbial contamination can cause corrosion
of the fuel system and prematurely plugged fuel filters. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Use of biodiesel may result in premature failure of fuel system components. Kubota has documented problems
such as plugged fuel filters and deteriorated fuel lines during testing of biodiesel.
