    Bio Deisel

    Hi
    Just wondering if anyone out there is making their own bio fuels, i was thinking about doing it for a while did a lot of research etc, but lost interest due to lack of spare time.
    I have heard that some people have even run diesel engines on filtered unprocessed old chip oil

    A mate of mine runs his Disco on it, makes his own but is finding it hard to get the chip oil as the big mobs buy it from the fish n chip shops.
    He has a set up that we built and may even want to sell it.
    Cheers, the ferret.

    I was just flicking through a few threads, and read this one, which leads me to this question...

    I also have a mate... He runs his furniture truck on bio he makes himself. Works fine when he's in QLD, where it's a bit warmer.. But, down here he has to warm the engine on diesel first... Gotta say, I love it when he comes to visit !! You can smell the truck before you hear it !

    Around my way a few of the farmers run on Canola oil. I wouldn't know the first thing about there setup but given the amount of Canola grown around here it makes sense.
