berettaman1 Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I admit I have tried it once ,i e, -15 litres of corn oil in a near empty tank topped up with diesel fuel, ( No Cholestrol according to the blurb on the side of the container) my van did indeed run very smooth, but I did not continue with the experiment as I kept expecting to be pulled up by the ministry guys and asked if I was FRYING TONIGHT!!

Cranfield Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I know a few people with Surfs that use it as a 50/50 diesel mix, with no problems at all. I ran mine for 6 months like this and all was OK, but my source of cheap(almost free) veg oil literally dried up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Yep, I do. 50/50 mix in summer, 33% oil 67% diesel in winter. I'm running a fourtrak on it. If you have any questions feel free to PM me. ZB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
