I bought biodiesel for the first time

Though I read and write about biodiesel for a couple of years, I never actually tested it thoroughly. I own a camper van with supercharged diesel engine for 3 years (since august 2006, the camper is built on Volkswagen Transporter / Vanagon T3, manufactured in 1979) but because of many different circumstances (including broken engine that was replaced for almost a year) I never bought than couple of liters of biodiesel.

♪♫♥♫♪ asked:


alternative / renewable fuel use? I made this issue a few years ago when I first experimented with biodiesel and there are associated conversion for diesel engines but what about the normal engines.

biodiesel kit
eyedoc999 asked:

There are corredi available on the Web site that can produce biodiesel if given the raw components. Unfortunately, can cost from $ 2K to $ 20K. There must be a Web page, a book, or un’aletta of spinning wheel that can teach EXACTLY that equipment (and where) to buy an outfit to make biodiesel that can help produce biodiesel and wash without spending $ 2K +. Anyone know where I can find this detailed info? Thank you!
