WVO and Biodiesel question

1) Just curious, how much are you biodieseler's spending now to make a gallon of fuel? Used to be 70 cents or so, but now that more people are making it, and needing lye and methanol, I'm sure the costs have gone up, plus the cost to have it delivered have gone up. Some months ago, I think the cost to make a gallon had gone up to $1.20, figure now it's got to be $1.45 or so, plus the work to make it.

2) As to the wvo people with kits on your car, what problems have you encountered? I'd heard it's only a matter of time if you use wvo, that you'll be driving down the road, and the car will quit, you'll have to pull off the busy road, in the rain, when you're already running late for work, to change filters. What's been your experience.

3) For both groups, how hard is it to find restaurant grease now?

Thanks,

jeff
