Hello -

Not actually biodiesel focused but about alternative fueled Sprinters . . .

Note that MB does have a BioDiesel page as part of their overall alternative fuel write-up: http://www4.mercedes-benz.com/e/home/innovation/recentdevelopments/vans/ alternativedrives/antriebsarten/biodiesel/vorteile .html

Hi Zach,
Just purchased a Sprinter Westy from Colonial in New Jersey. Was wondering if you've heard anyone convert theirs to BioDeisel. Also wondering if you've seen anyone put in a solar pv system with upgrade batteries to run the ac unit and hot water heater?

Thanks for the info, great site! Informative and thorough.
