Vegetable as Alternative Fuel

First of all and before you read any further, please know that I am not selling anything here on this site. The following information is free and anything you do with it will be done at your own risk. I only wish that someone would have given me this valuable information before I embarked on my own vision of cheap fuel made from used vegetable oil.

Did you know that Mr. Diesel invented his engine to run on peanut oil? Did you know that modern diesel fuel is a byproduct of modern petroleum refining? Diesel was cheaper than gasoline for a long time prior to the environmentalist driven removal of sulfur from the product. When the new low-sulfur product emerged, it was more expensive and it was stripped of its natural lubricating properties. The diesel engine injector system is full of moving parts that are designed to be lubricated by the fuel. This is no longer possible using modern low-sulfur diesel. This is also the reason that alternative carbon based liquid that lubricates the engine is far better for the moving parts of the injector system.
There are limitations to the use of the vegetable oil fuel product in newer engines and the type of processing you use will depend upon your vehicle.
