Can I use "Canoila oil"
Could I just throw "canola oil, normal cooking oil" ($5 gallon) as an additive to my tank? Or is it going to screw up something? Should it be mixed with maybe DK before throwing into tank?
Because here you can't buy the right bio
Just wondering if that could be a nice additive. One gallon makes ~3.5% maybe should throw in two (7%).

One gallon of new Canola per tank of diesel will do nothing but help your engine run quieter, smoother, and even smell a little better. However, if you plan to go much more than that, then you need to look into either a WVO conversion, or making bio.
Would it be acceptable to add one gallon of new veggie oil every other fill and add the DK on alternate fills? I wouldn't want to get the ratio of VO to #2 too high by adding it every time and cause problems.

Cheaper than DK, and living here on "the hell on earth" place temp wise (~100+ *F) it should not make any issue with the glycerine.
Of course you should not do this when it is colder.
I'm happy with this answer, Thanks FN. As I'm just looking to throw in one gallon per tank (29g).
Only thing is I have to do it so that my wife doesn't see! I'm using all the cooking oil... And after all the mods done to the truck, now the idiot is pouring the cooking oil into the tank!
