there is lots of infomation about on running on veggie oil but there is also lots of missinformation about and since the fuel system on a crdi sedona has a reputation for being fragile you need to find out what are the real facts i enquired on this forum and one reply was from an owner who was running approx 50% veggie but as far as i know french diesel is 5% veggie so your 10% mix isnt that far away try having a look at bio-power on the web their site gives info on making your own diesel and the info on duty payable
best of luck and let us know how it goes glenn
ps a friend of mine ran a vauxhall corsa on 50/50 and it ran fine and another aquantance ran a 2.5 peugeot on 50/50 but both of them cut back to 70/30 as the exhaust was a bit aromatic and they wernt exactly telling the tax man!!!!!!!!!!
