Actually methyl-ester (biodiesel) made with solid fats (@ RT) is very viscous or even solid @ RT. The easiest way to run lard in the MBZ and the only practical way i found is to dissolve its long chain methyl-ester it is with gasoline. so not only you have to process it into biodiesel, but to must thin out considerably with a strong solvent....Not worth it.
