(Home) Vegetable oil - chips & doughnuts

Ok all you "Townace buffs.Who runs on on cooking oil?it looks like a lot of us will be asking the question sooner or later.Do you need to adjust anything on the engine?does it create any problems with the injecters & filters & what is the oil you use? is it new or used,if new does it make a difference if it's corn or sunflower oil, if used how do you filter all the batter out.They are the questions,who's got all the answers.At £1+ per Ltr I think one either has to bite the bullet & pay or find a less expensive way to run.

Steuart,
I make and run on my own waste chip shop oil.
Have a look at www.bio-power.co.uk it will give you all the answers you need.
No mods and 6 months (15,000 miles) usage with no problems so far.
