correct
correct
If I have those facts straight, then I must have gotten confused by the section on the Utah Bio Supply website discussing how to obtain your WVO for the process?????
To make biodiesel inexpensive home-brewers collect waste veg oil for a very small price or free and then convert the wvo to biodiesel using the appleseed, homemade or commercial bought biodiesel processor.
You can also use straight veg oil (svo). Or svo mixed with wvo to make biodiesel. These are all oils converted into biodiesel to run in our unmodified engines. Most commercial bought biodiesel is made from at least 80% svo in order to meet ASTM D-6751.
Using svo/wvo straight into the vehicle is a different animal. The vehicle must be modified.
