Did you start with virgin oil Jerry? Strongly advised - fewer
variables to start with, and it gives you a good idea of what to
expect as you proceed further.

good. but it's been downhill since then. The website has alot
Hey Matt,
I took a look at the wick link. No. Look at the pictures on that
web site. You are looking at a manufactured product. What's going to
happen to you when the company goes out of business or the shipping

The answer my friend is far simpler. I went to a
AAA Tackles EPA on Mileage Ratings

AAA - the American Automobile Association - has labelled as outdated
the methodology the EPA uses to establish its mileage ratings. The
association is now lending its support to

conclusion as many motorists - the actual miles per gallon
achieved during the daily use of a vehicle generally falls
well short of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates.

Hello,
In the late '80's there was a company in Ottawa, Canada that was

years in England, and Europe with this style cooker or stove.

Sorry, I've been away from Biofuels for a little while.

My understanding of the most commonly quoted reason for the
large number of teachers who leave the profession while still young
is that quite simply the paperwork, the

Did you heat it?
I heated the oil to 50 degrees celcius. Actually, the thermometer I used
burst so some alcohol went in there but I'd hoped that that had evaporated
off.I cooled it a bit by waiting.
How did you agitate it?

Rating on any Golf or Jetta diesel is 46 mpg. But everyone I know who
keeps their's in good repair get 50-52 mpg combined city and highway (60
mph), even in metropolitan areas.

You're confusing the 60 that was printed in my response as miles per
gallon, not miles per hour as stated. It reflected the achievement of 52 mpg
when running 60 mph.
You also substantiate that your TDI has a lifetime fuel economy of 46 mpg.
That matches its sticker. The truth for your TDI

Franz,
Can you describe the distribution of the biodiesel?
Will the fuel be sold to commercial customers or
retail customers? I am interested in the distribution
network...
Thank you.

Hello Nayer,
I got this address off of the Journey to Forever website. You should take
some time and read through the info on the JTF site, you won't believe all
the information compiled here, but it won't do you any good if you don't
read it. Happy hunting.
Fortunately, I'm a member of the British Red Cross so if anything does go
wrong I will pretty much know what to do although I do not, as a rule,
handle major incidence.
That's still no good reason to go stirring hot methanol in an open
container with a spoon. People were doing stuff like
looking to make my own biodiesel, hopefully would like to do so with a
group of folks... just bought a 2002 jetta tdi - anyone in the tucson area
making biodiesel?
thanx, kenn

What might be beneficial is to take a look at what you call pay[ing]

anecdotal complaints of others.
