Been running a mix of veg oil and diesel for the last 6 years in a 190 a 100 and now a 150 transit also there are many many other transits in this area all running veg oil at a 50/50 mix works well more power quieter just when really cold use a 25% veg to 75% diesel mix in the winter never had an issue at all even run it neat middle of summer and unleaded doesn't mix with it and is harmful to diesel seals etc and also lowers the cetane value of veg oil by 6 points making it pretty crap compared with oil diesel mix BOSCH PUMP ONLY lucas tend to break between 5000 & 15000 miles oh and do change cam belt first
