Running on Veg oil? doable?
« on: 18 March 2011, 00:18:05 »
I'm thinking of running a blend of Veg oil. seeing as its £1 a litre in the supermarkets by me....

savings to be had


what do people reckon?

I know about it needing to be either well mixed with diesel, or preheated, but from a practical aspect is it viable.
I'd be happy to chuck in 50% veg when i fill up.
Will be a good saving over the whole tank.

I'd suggest a bit of research into it... Been covered here several times ;) ::)

Oh... And FWIW, I wouldn't bother ;)

It will cost you more in the long run when you break the fuel pump/injectors and you will be for every replacing the fuel filter. :-/
Thats just my personal opinion.
Why not run it on cherry ::)  8-)
