Last night friend said he heard on a radio show that you can use straight Soy Bean oil in a diesel engine without any modifications made to the engine. He stated he's going to try it.........I told him he was crazy, but he's insistant that it's 1/2 the cost and gets more mileage. I did a lil online research and saw that it can be done..........but that doesn't mean it should be, LOL. Anyone else try this and what results did you get? :cool:

Look thru the treads from last week. I started this subject and got lot's of good info and a place to buy the still. I think there's a link and a video on how it's done. The diesel engine was designed to run on peanut oil.

Veg oil works fine as long as you follow a few rules.
