Running on Veg oil

rangiemike · Jan 10, 2012

hey guys, i know there has been alot of talk in the past about running on veg oil. I am thinking about doing this myself in hope to drive down the cost of my fuel week after week. just wanting to know if anyone is currently doing this, if they had any problems and what are the implications of doing this. just worried because i seriously dont want to ruin my p38 lol.

I run my rangie on 100% home produced biodiesel and it is happy on that. If you want to know more about running on veg oil or bio best take a look here
