Question

Is anyone currently working on a conversion kit for gasoline cars to switch to vegetable oil as a fuel source?

Answer 1

Only available for diesel, that you can make yourself.

Answer 2

Good idea, but not practical, bio-diesel  will not ignite under the low compression conditions of a gasoline engine.

Answer 3

Im sure there are projects.  Check with the major universities in your area as they tend to look at these projects often.  But the real answer for our children's future?  It's fuel cell!

Answer 4

You would need to replace the gasoline engine with a diesel engine along with the engine management system, and most of the fuel system.

Answer 5

No. Vegetable oils are not volatile enough to spark-ignite and burn like gasoline. They are an extremely effective substitute for diesel fuel, though.
