Well silly, you have to let vegetable oil age for a while...like say, a million years.

It’s usually not used straight, but chemically reacted with lye and alcohol to form the fuel compound. Using straight grease would be asking for bad varnish problems in the engine.

Because you can make biodiesel out of it — that’s regular old diesel fuel, by the way, exactly what you get at the pump — like we do for a diesel Mercedes.

If you know what you're doing and have the correct equipment and chemicals, used cooking oil can be turned into good quality biodiesel fuel.
