Biodiesel conversion?
Has anyone done any work in this area? My dad has a VW rabbit that he's converting. Seems the process should be similar? Ideas?

Biodiesel conversion?
Hi,
Here in Europe we already have around 25% rape-seed oil in our diesel fuel, my 1986 F-250 has no conversion and burns it Ok. I have been told to watch out for leaks at the o-rings as they dry up faster with bio-diesel. The truck has been running on it since 1998 and no leaks so far, hope it lasts, the only noticable difference is the odor of the smoke !! Magic Oo. |

goto biodiesel.infopop.net. Several Ford diesel owners are using biodiesel or vegetable oil. Search on 'Ford' and 'Diesel'

It does if the biodiesel was made from used fryer oil from a f+c place. Usually smells like 'something burning in the kitchen' or a BBQ. All say it's better than petro diesel.

25% doesn't change the odor much but it does smell better than straight diesel, no french, sorry, "freedom fries" coming out of the muffler yet!!
