Here's one I just heard today from one of the fleet mechanics regarding biodiesel. Seems that an ambulance they were working on (and running biodiesel) had a fuel leak and the biodiesel ate all the insulation off the electrical harness that it leaked onto. Now they are waiting for a new harness to install. Anyone ever hear of anything about biodiesel being corrosive like that?
