It would probably happen under this administration if they could figure a way to make a diesel
engine that would run with a 50% ethanol mixture.

Bio diesel is the sweetheart of the moment. There are so many people
around here burning cooking oil that used oil has gone from something
they had to pay to haul away to another profit center. (usually pure
cash for the chef or restaurant manager)

At my wife's place they trade it for free electrical work. Their
electrician runs his trucks on cooking oil.

My owner's manual specifically prohibits it. But I hear it's pretty damn cheap!

This guy has a home built reprocessing facility in his shop and he
says the resulting oil is as good as anything you get from a pump.


I gotta' look back through my FB posts.. I have a picture of a hippie
bus in there I ran into last year at the end of the season. They came
and got about 6 gallons of cooking oil from my fryer and ran it in their
bus. The bus is equipt with a filter pump and system right in line so
you pour the straight cooking oil in one tank, it cleans and filters it,
and runs it in the engine all in one shot....


Oh, horse****! It just isn't that easy.
