C'mon, guys, think outside the box. You're on your way to developing a product that fuels the engine and washes the car at the same time.

Anyone who has ever barbecued massive amounts of chicken over charcoal knew this a long time ago.

You know I tried some of this stuff. The truck seemed to run alright but it didn't want to merge into traffic.

I have been running my Mercedes diesel on 50-70% used french fry oil for three months. I am overall satisfied, but some sluggishness has recently appeared, and I don't yet know if it is the fuel, the filter or the fuel pump. I don't think it is a breakdown.

Have you changed the fuel filters (plural)?

They are likely plugged. Biodiesel concentrations above 20% will tend to flush out all the gunk into your filters.

In my case, it also caused the fuel tank screen to become clogged with algae. Treat with a bio-cide and Diesel 911.
