Hi this is targets to a small group that live near DC, and an even smaller group (if any) who make your own biodiesel.

I am interested in doing this and would like to see you do it and even help make a batch to get a feel of how its done. I have done all the online research and stuff but there is nothing like being with someone who knows the ropes.

Would suggest posting also on gws-mbca.org (local Mercedes club chapter)...I'll also ask my MB-only indy mechanic (Mitch Carr).

You might also look around and perhaps post on the BiodieselNow forum's local initiative section. They actually have a section just for the Virginia, Maryland, DC area, and it seems fairly active. You shouldn't have much trouble finding helpful homebrewers out there. I met a group of St. Louis brewers through the same resource.

Good luck! It is really an easy proccess, but I feel 100% more confident about it having had a chance to go through it with a few other people. Much easier than learning it all from scratch.

peace,
Sam
