Re: Jeep CRD in Massachusetts
I thought that running your diesel on fryer oil works ok on old diesels, but
is not a good idea for the modern turbo-charged common rail diesel engine.
Not surprised therefore if it does work on your VW rabbit or 60s Chevy, but
I would like to see it working in someone elses modern diesel for a couple
of hundred thousand miles before I would be tempted to go down that route.

Re: Jeep CRD in Massachusetts
"Trucks" on Spike TV ran a show two weeks ago, where they made bio-diesel
from french fry oil, methanol, and red devile lye. They then put it in a 2K
something Dodge ram pickup. They said it got better mileage, same amount of
power and cost less. They said the only downside is they had to stop and
get something to eat every few miles, due to smelling the french fry
exhaust. They said total cost was around $0.70 US. That was with the used
vegitable oil being given by the local hamburger place. The said most fast
food restaurants will give it away so they don't have to pay a company to
come pick it up.
