Where do you find cheap enough SVO to make it economically feasable???

If it's had fries in it it's WVO. SVO is outa'da'jug at 1.35 litre for Canola oil currently.

Right now Dino Diesel.....but in my travels B100 and B20 when I get near a place listed with the BioDiesel Board's Dealer listing by State.

For you guys blending WVO and gasoline......any problems with the 10% ethanol now in the gasoline? (ethanol contains water....)
Although...I think I mentioned in an old post that I once poured a half bottle of Jack Daniels into one of my SDs and it did not skip a beat......good thing for my cars I don't drink anymore!

You mean it didn't hiccup at idle? Did it engage in public oil leaking or weave all over the road?

It's probably that you can click more than one box. I clicked both biodiesel and petro because I usually run B100, but as it cools down, I am increasing the petro into the mix.

I mostly use waste Jet A1 from work, when I have tgo buy diesel, it's whatever is handy.

Locally made ASTM soy based B100.

Is there any other fuel?

B100 and WVO from the time I bought the car 2 years ago with minimal problems. First I changed all the old hoses to vitron as recommend because biodiesel has solvent properties and will eat through old rubber hoses. Also, biodiesel will clean out dino-diesel stuff in your tank so I changed the fuel filter after about a month to avoid the filter clogging issue. If I have to I'll mix in dino-diesel when no biodiesel is available or when the outside temperature drops. I have also used kerosene blended with biodiesel when it gets real cold.

I bought my 300D specifically to convert to WVO. I have driven cross country and back on a two tank WVO system twice and have had no problems with this set up. I have clocked somewhere around 20-25,000 miles on WVO alone and have been happy with the results. Also, the engine runs a lot smoother and it smells good.
