I have a friend that converted a suburban into running on biodiesel, but I want something smaller. Does anyone have any experience with converting a car? Which kind of car would work best?What car runs best on vegetable oil (biodiesel)?
Any diesel engine can run on bio diesel. You will suffer on power and fuel economy.What car runs best on vegetable oil (biodiesel)?
it has to be a diesel motor to run on vegteble oil and some conversions do have to be made to the carb. they do make slug bugs that have diesel motors
Vegetable oil is not biodiesel. Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil by adding chemicals. If you want to run a car off of straight vegetable oil, you will need an extra tank to store the oil as well as another pump, hoses going into the injectors, and something to switch the source of fuel from diesel to oil (you have to start the car on diesel).
Biodiesel is much simpler, and it doesn't require any modifications to run on a diesel vehicle.
All diesel vehicles can run on vegetable oil, I really recomend that you thoroughly clean the vegetable oil if you plan to get it from mcdonalds or burger king or other fast food restraunts.
any car with a diesel engine will run on biodiesel trust me i know i use it. you dont loose fuel econ, or performence, in fact you gane some. But some times if you do the blend just alittle of and dont get all the drop out. you will clog the filter in the engine but not hard to replace and cheap. considering i make biodiesel for 70 cents a gal. here is where i got my processor for making biodiesel www.homebiodiesel.com
