Still got it. Buyer backed out… after he blew up the tranny and cancelled the wire transfer.

Tranny is rebuilt and the truck is in Brockport.

I think its hell on the fuel system. (pump, injectors (“nozzles”), lines, etc…) makes for a horrid mess when working on them.
Bio IMHO is a better way to go… or just use the car and enjoy the 45+mpg…

If i was to do grease it would be on a truck the modern TDI, is far tooo finicky
