I recently acquired an old diesel sedan which I want to convert to run on WVO(Waste Vegetable Oil). Does anybody have any experience with grease cars? Specifically I want to buy all the part to make my own grease fuel system.

Cool stuff. I've always wanted to do something like this but didn't really have the initiative. I just ride my bike everywhere now anyway.

I wish I had the practical option. I live in the country where things are far apart. When I lived in Honolulu it was great I could bike anywhere year round. I am trying to get it greased so I can afford to drive across country, visiting my geographically scattered comrades and giving demos of the technology whenever I can.

Well, I put filtered waste vegetable oil straight into the tank to mix with the diesel. I wouldn't even need the diesel if I lived in a warmer climate. Feels good to make your own free fuel.

Thanks for the link, interesting stuff on there. No usable/accurate info for my purposes but thanks anyways.
I just picked up 20+ gallons of veggie oil that needs to be filtered today. I was lucky enough to find a good source of grease without too much searching.
