my 24v seemed to love it. it runs smooth and quiet on it. but! my bio is a very clean dry mixture. never even had a fuel filter get plugged with it. you hear stories of people having their filters get plugged after a couple weeks, but not mine.

Default Bio Diesel

I have been running blended veggi oil in a 1986 VW for 3 years. It is not a TDI and runs great on the oil. The car had 167,000 on it when I started and now has 217,600. There is a slight power drop and I had to change to a different filter. Go for it, at about 50 cents a gallon I can burn a lot of fryer oil

Most of the places that I can get oil I have to pay for it. It is not worth my time to do it is only about a 30 cent difference.

before you start buying things start hauling in used fry oil from places free. i got a bunch of oil saved up. after you get it and you still want to make it i will try to help you with what you need. most guys think its to messy.
