Cool, Just make sure you pick a car thatl run on Bio,
theres a Chap near me selling Bio -very cheap but mechanics and other people say "Not to put it anywhere near a Hdi,
other people have been complaining of a lot of water build up in the Fuel filters too whilst runnin on the stuff,

so im not sure how it works or it couid be just the chap selling dodgey water down crap :?

you have to wash bio with water ... hes probably not removing the water properly ..

dodgy fker its not fair that cos it will be the person whos car he fks up left with the bill to fix it ...

your better getting an old diesel engine if you wanna run bio. XUD is the best bet ...

ive got a m8 who runs classes on making bio diesel , i went to a gathering at his place in buckinghamshire last summer and never payed attention to what was being discussed , i know he has a web site with instructions ect , anyone want to talk to him go on tpuc.org and search for " chug " ill send him message for his site addy .

from what i did learn about making bio diesel from wvo , i know he gets a 45 gallon drum of wvo and adds a percentage of methanol , its heated to a certain tempriture and stired a few times to mix it all up , then the heat is turned off and its allowed to settle for a few days , i know there are 3 drain off valves on the drum , sh*t sinks to bottom , the bio is in middle and the methanol completly seperates and sits on the top , the methanol can be re used over and over , there is some chemical test he does involving a hydrometer from memory .

also from memory , the methanol and the heat combined break down the chians in the oil and turn it wattery , the sediment then sinks easier and the methanol comes to the top , he is extremly busy guy but ill try get him to do a write up or a link to his site .
