    Here in the UK diesel price is nearly twice the price of home brew Bio . So guess what I run lol
    As said old school pre common rail generally will run fine on SVO straight veg oil. In colder climes like here :/ it can get a bit gloopy so a few litres of petrol fixes that
    Does smell a bit like a chip shop but hey I'm not paying bloody duty ha ha ;-)
    Emissions are virtually none too .
    You'll need to be careful if your old truck has rubber pipes though as veggie can eventually rot it. This can be a problem if the pump has rubber O rings etc. Most these days are some sort of synthetic rubber so "should" good to go.
    My Trol 4.2 has been running on it since I had it 3 years back , all good and "cheap as chips"
    Y60 Patrol 4.2 d SWB in puke green
