Can i run my car on veg oil from the supermarket?

Question

i ahve an 03 2 ltr diesel astra, cant find any onfo on weather or not it will work, im not up for huge processing plant at home so am hoping i would just be ok to use it straight, or blend it with a % of diesel without heating, i have no probs filtering if needed..but i would be buying cooking oil or something similar, also has anyone ever heard of any chemicals/ oils that can run a car straight on its own, iv heard the possibility of ethenol, caprylic triglycerides and or mineral oil being used on there own.........sadly im not a chemist tho.

Answer 1

If you have a diesel car you can!

Answer 2

You can blend up to 25% without heating.get injection lines heaters for $40 U.S. and you can run higher amount.

Answer 3

i think you have to have your engine converted for that to work

Answer 4

You would need to convert your engine first to run on biofuel. Then, I'd recommend asking a local asian food restaraunt if you can use their thrown-out oil to run your car on.

Answer 6

Yes you can and you can make your own biodesiel and methanol at home grown in your gardens and farms.

I've heard you can also run a car on Water/Hydrogen, but I've never tested it myself.  There are plenty of books, journals, newspaper articles websites etc  to research it.
