Vegetable oil biodiesel - kiwiev
Anyone out there know of any simple method of turning used vegetable oil into bio-diesel without being a chemist.Heard using white spirit at 10% ratio could work but looks like H.M Customs & Excise have put the stop to that.Any websites or recipes greatfully appreciated.cheers

Vegetable oil biodiesel - keo-the-dog
thats exactly what i use on an old renault trafic van (off-road of course) and it goes very well if a little lumpy when cold, the only thing is it smells of donuts. and the van will be scrapped in around 5 months so i dont really care if it breaks as i have other vehicles, this is purely an experiment to see how it goes...cheers...keo.
