Anyone know if you can use fresh vegetable oil?

greetings midjet the use of veg in your wifes motor is something you have to sort out between the two of you i must be lucky my wife agrees with anything which puts one over on the taxman/saves us money but since you have followed this thread from page 1 you will be aware i am a coward and only run a weak mix

Interesting thread, I run two diesel cars so info on this subject is always useful, I was browsing the net and came across this article.

etruk.com - Home

Any comments ?

Can I buy the equipment cheaper elsewhere, I'd love to produce my own bio diesel, 2500 litres per year for my own use without having to inform Customs and Excise, PLUS get one over on Mr Darling & co

Cheers

cant tell you where it is but there is at least one website with instructions on how to build you own bio fuel plant as i did consider building my own but family concerns halted my plans but if i remember correctly nearly all the parts needed are available from your local plumbing merchant

Depending on your own skills at plumbing, no insult intended, building you own system is not difficult.

I have begun collecting the components for my own 'home built' system, you can see my first small batch here
vegetableoildiesel.co.uk - My Dr Pepper - Powered by XMB

this was originally in our deep fat fryer at home, before processing.

here's a sample from that batch,


I have so far got the main vessel, a hot water cylinder (117ltr) from a freindly plumber. I am waiting for confirmation that I can have 3 - 200ltr drums from work - then the plumbing.

vegetableoildiesel.co.uk, is an extemely helpful site for anyone thinking of this.
