Fair enough........refining is the incorrect term. I certainly would not attempt to create bio without staying at a Holiday Inn Express for at least one night!!!

The bottom line to me was the diff between WVO and Bio-diesel is the ability to run one (BIO)using the existing fuel system (after the chemical reaction) and the other(WVO) having to have a separate tank/heater/filter sytem.


You're correct in that I don't know all the details...........but I think I know the main differences.


Also was trying to understand why one would run virgin oil that costs nearly the same as diesel ( within $.60 a gallon)in a system designed to run free fuel????


Also understand that 100BIO from co-ops is under $2.00 a gallon.........again negating running VO in a WVO system.
