| Okay I get the idea grandpa, don't raise your blood pressure :roll: I don't know why you are on about red diesel, you are the one who brought it up. They sell kits to make biodiesel with everything included you need to make the diesel. Also with a mechanical (non common rail) diesel you can mix vegg... |

| Even if someone doesn't speak very good English you should be able to tell what they are saying. Those posts were just total nonsense. I can't understand why someone would commit themselves to spamming forums all day, what do they get out of it? |

| Why are you always being so negative? I can turn a blind eye to it for a couple of posts but it does start to grate after the umpteenth time! Who gives a crap whether it is up for review or not, even if they make it legal they'll never know whether or not you are using bio. Why do you keep repeating... |

| I like having fuel independence Mole, veggie is 100% legal and does not damage anything in the system. Infact it actually cleans it. This is true of both veggie and biodiesel. It was even in an edition of Car Mechanics magazine. |

| Jomukuk, there are biodiesel machines you can get to produce biodiesel, not heat it up on it's way to the injector pump. The issues you are describing are only for common rail diesel engines not the mechanical ones like I have. |

But if you do it were it won't affect your driving like doing 55 behind a truck then why not? As long as you choose the appropiate time to do it it will not compromise your safety. This is why cars have cup holders, after all  |

| Fuel duty went up about a month ago that will be the source of the rise in price. I love petrol but I always like to have a diesel car as well as a petrol car because you can make biodiesel and run the diesel off that. Also I am planning to get my car modified to run on vegetable oil. These are both... |

| Now, it seems when I was a wee lad, this was perfectly accepted by the cops and there was no trouble over it. However nowadays I have heard more responses of "It'll get you done". Which I counter with "Only if you let it affect your driving in which case you should not be doing it&quo... |
