BIO-DIESEL question................

A buddy of mine says there is two ways to make bio-diesel. One is to cook it and the other you dont have to. He has been making it for about 2 years for his wifes jacked up 4x4 excursion and swears he hasnt had a minutes problem. Is this possible?

i wouldn't say you "cook it" but to make Bio Diesel involves heating up and mixing so maybe thats what you mean. But yes it is true that you can make your own fuel check out this forum like 62rag said https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum168/

Anyone here wanting to know anything about biodiesel, go the alternative fuels forum under the diesel section and look for a guy named Fabmandeluxe. He is the one you want to talk to, he's the resident guru on all things biodiesel.
