is a BOAT ,please don't strike me off the site,its all to do with engines and
gearboxes and things .diesels is me passion and probably my demise!!
but---- the real interest is engines that can be made to run on veg oil.
won't be all that long before we all need to look at alternative fuels.
(if we want to keep playing with engines that is)
thanks

red diesel

Postby glastry » Wed Feb 15, 2006 10:35 pm

yes -red diesel can sometimes be cheaper,but the point about veg oil,
or for some people ,bio-diesel is that reducing the use of carbon fuels
is already a vital issue in relation to global warming.there are many
existing sites that can explain much better than i could ,just how important this subject is.
i can run my tranny on veg oil,it runs better,sounds better,and creates less pollution than petro-diesel. its takes a minimal amount of effort to
manage the use of veg oil-but its well worth the effort.
thanks
