Re: [diesel_mercedes] Searching for a mechanic and biodiesel in North San Diego County

 

professormobesser,

Welcome to SoCal, though we're pretty lean on biodiesel. I doubt there's
any available in North County SD, and up here in Orange county it's not
much better. I need to find a new source of WVO...

A bit north for you, yet here's where I bring my car, if it's something
I'm not going to fix myself:

Dan's Auto (specializes in older MB's)
116 Industrial Way
Costa Mesa CA 92627
(949) 642-6770

Rob
'85 300D
Garden Grove, CA

The only retail biodiesel station I can find is the Pearson Fuels station on El Cajon Blvd in East San Diego County, about 40 miles to the south of my location. And they only sell B20. I want my B100! Or at least B99. It's ironic that in a place where the U.S. military uses lots of biodiesel, the consumer can hardly find a place to buy it.
