I drove a 940 that ran on used vegetable oil, it felt sluggish AF maybe it was a bad mix or something, he told me it was 50/50. I haven't been around a lot of cars running on that but I heard it ruins injectors on the long term and smells well like vegetables oil so no very facy but cheap i guess.
Yep, veg oil, especially used cooking one (eg heated for a long period) is full of drying out components, that will kill the whole fuel system including the hoses. That is why veg oil usually used as a raw material to make "biodiesel" which has some limitations too but way more usable as a fuel.
If doing this for a diesel heater, i recommend running a mixture of 40 percent filtered used oils, 50 % virgin heating oil/diesel/jetA/kerosene and 10 % petrol. I have a drum where i premix the ingredients, and run through an ultra filter setup with a recirculation pump before i transfer it to the clean drum. Be sure to sample often and change those fulters.

You got to do titration assays on your batch with Heet(TM) AKA methanol, and sodium methylate to transesterify the oil and fraction off glycerol to have ACTUAL biodiesel it works in more engines.

Last engines that would happily run off heating oil, sunflower oil, etc. were the fully mechanical ones from the 80s and 90s. Modern fuel injectors would gum up and the engine would be trash in a week. The old ones would run well for a good while, but it was rough. A family friend once upon a time ran his Golf 3 on vegetable oil, after a few months it gummed up and was trash. It's not a clean enough fuel.

It was actually recommended back in the day to add up to 20% gasoline to your diesel in winter, when winterdiesel was not a thing yet. Try adding some gasoline to your tank if it doesn't want to start when it gets colder. I actually use the diesel/gasoline mix I get from workshops when they pump out cars that filled up the wrong fuel in my old tractors.

Sadly the cars that can run on veg are slowly dying. I can run mine on straight veg, got the awesome xud9te engine, variants of which can be found in a huge variety of cars. I do, however chose to make biodiesel as you get a far lower operational temperature range and it’s kinder to the fuel system being as the viscosity is much closer to regular diesel
I had a 2000 fiat punto 1.9 jtd. I used for 20k miles in a year, I used to run it on a 90 oil/10 diesel mix ran two fuel filters then for last 9k miles ran it on heating oil with 5% diesel plus maybe a few oil changes went back in tank, hey its called recycling. Now I run a 1.9 p130 passat with 70 oil and 30 diesel, am going to try to up oil mixer with a bit of archoil as seems to help a bit the passat is nearly on 200k and each oil change its not bad and don't worry that gets recycled too .
If it’s a PD engine, you can run 85% oil 15% petrol but you’ll need to be careful of the hot start issue that arises. Engine tries to start with less fuel when car is up to temp & often can’t at all or will need to crank for about 30s before it fires, this can be changed in software though to start with the full fueling it would from cold regardless of engine temp. Other than that just make sure it’s thoroughly mixed & filtered to 1 micron & you’re good to go
I’ve had good results with up to 80% waste motor oil on the HEUI 7.3 powerstroke (international t444e.) cut with normal number 2 diesel sometimes with a splash of regular unleaded gasoline

Most people I've seen run this in trucks with common rail have to have a set up that runs diesel until operating temp is reached then switch over to black diesel..Otherwise the rings will gunk up with carbon if the valves don't first..and then back to regular diesel before shutdown. .I've seen a large centrifuge used to filter it..which removes any water too..from condensation inside metal barrels or someone pouring coolant into the wrong barrel at the garage. .I assume he means mechanical injector pump when he says fuel pump..Must be what they call that in the land of government micromanagement..at least on fuels..speaking of illegal things in the UK. ..You also run one of those little chinese 6kw diesel heaters of that too..I hear a kilowatt hour cost an arm and a leg there. So that would definitely add to the savings
Depends on how smart the examiner is. When my old Land Rover got stopped by the Ministry to see if I was running on red diesel the arsehole tried putting his probe down the filler cap. He couldn't getting it down cos there's a mesh filter to stop debris going in and I wasn't gonna tell the twat that pulling, twist then pulling gets the Jerry can extention out taking the mesh with it. 🖕🏻😄 If he was smart he could have used the water drain on most diesel filters or pulled the feed hose pipe to the fuel injection pump or crack the injection pipes and turn the engine over till fuel comes out but I would've said no cos it's a bastard to bleed the system.😉 So he got the vehicle examiner to be extra strict in checking it over cos out of earshot the VE told me that the Ministry arsehole had said that. The look on the Ministry arsehole's face when the VE said there's only a bit on play on a bush which wouldn't be a MOT failure so he's free to leave was priceless. After the PNC check came back clear I drove away giving the Ministry arsehole the 🇬🇧V for victory🤣
I run a mix of automatic transmission fluid 4 gallons of diesel 250 gallons of transmission fluid. Theprimary factor is high pressure injectors, no rail systems.
Do you experience any noticeable losses in power when driving? Also I suppose the overall fuel consumption will rise when driving on veg oil, is that correct?
Fun fact: McDonalds (in the UK at least) runs their trucks off this, all McDonalds trucks run off used cooking oil with some additives, it saves them money and gives them good marketing.
Pretty sure if you are running veg oil then it's fine, as it's already had the necessary taxes taken from it when purchased from wherever it was purchased from prior to being used :)

Sadly the cars that can run on veg are slowly dying. I can run mine on straight veg, got the awesome xud9te engine, variants of which can be found in a huge variety of cars. I do, however chose to make biodiesel as you get a far lower operational temperature range and it’s kinder to the fuel system being as the viscosity is much closer to regular diesel
I had a 2000 fiat punto 1.9 jtd. I used for 20k miles in a year, I used to run it on a 90 oil/10 diesel mix ran two fuel filters then for last 9k miles ran it on heating oil with 5% diesel plus maybe a few oil changes went back in tank, hey its called recycling. Now I run a 1.9 p130 passat with 70 oil and 30 diesel, am going to try to up oil mixer with a bit of archoil as seems to help a bit the passat is nearly on 200k and each oil change its not bad and don't worry that gets recycled too

How do you dewater and degrease your oil? Wait for it to settle? For how long?
after a while probably a week or so most of the water will have settled to the bottom
When it’s cold out here ice will freeze and stay at the bottom.
Why need to? Very likely to be a water trap filter being a diesel engine
Testing weak mixing in my Passat 1.9TDI with pump injectors.
Working fine but dont know how far can i go.
Im worry about injectors
If it’s a PD engine, you can run 85% oil 15% petrol but you’ll need to be careful of the hot start issue that arises. Engine tries to start with less fuel when car is up to temp & often can’t at all or will need to crank for about 30s before it fires, this can be changed in software though to start with the full fueling it would from cold regardless of engine temp. Other than that just make sure it’s thoroughly mixed & filtered to 1 micron & you’re good to go
Thats some top shelf vege oil. Looks like gods greatest 10w40
0:04 "and no, it's not made of carlsberg"
thank God!
😅😂🤣
maybe run it through a finer micron filter than a bedsheet also
2008 transit connect 1.8tdci common rail runs great on it 👍
Up north of Ireland, they use bread to filter diesel
That is to filter the red dye out of the commercial diesel they are flogging
@@ripme6616 on the ball
The diesel freak, gallons'n gallons everywhere; in the living room, kitchen, bedroom & mo! 😉
I’ve had good results with up to 80% waste motor oil on the HEUI 7.3 powerstroke (international t444e.) cut with normal number 2 diesel sometimes with a splash of regular unleaded gasoline
That Volvo is gorgeous
You can also create low grade diesel from plastic
But it is extremely toxic whilst in the making and whilst using, for you and the environment.
1998 peugeot 406 1.9 d. Ran that old girl for 50k miles on pure new vegetable oil without a problem. Its been sitting for years now with the oil in the tank and any time I hook a battery up to it it fires up first turn. Great old car.
Brilliant car 2300 miles on 3 tanks of red with a little change probably another 70 miles.1 tank full 150 litres in the boot back in the good old days birmingham to Romania boy o boy what a car
@@johnmcintyre800
They don't make them like that anymore.
Most people I've seen run this in trucks with common rail have to have a set up that runs diesel until operating temp is reached then switch over to black diesel..Otherwise the rings will gunk up with carbon if the valves don't first..and then back to regular diesel before shutdown. .I've seen a large centrifuge used to filter it..which removes any water too..from condensation inside metal barrels or someone pouring coolant into the wrong barrel at the garage. .I assume he means mechanical injector pump when he says fuel pump..Must be what they call that in the land of government micromanagement..at least on fuels..speaking of illegal things in the UK. ..You also run one of those little chinese 6kw diesel heaters of that too..I hear a kilowatt hour cost an arm and a leg there. So that would definitely add to the savings
How could they find out if you put other oils in there?
Depends on how smart the examiner is.
When my old Land Rover got stopped by the Ministry to see if I was running on red diesel the arsehole tried putting his probe down the filler cap.
He couldn't getting it down cos there's a mesh filter to stop debris going in and I wasn't gonna tell the twat that pulling, twist then pulling gets the Jerry can extention out taking the mesh with it.
🖕🏻😄
If he was smart he could have used the water drain on most diesel filters or pulled the feed hose pipe to the fuel injection pump or crack the injection pipes and turn the engine over till fuel comes out but I would've said no cos it's a bastard to bleed the system.😉
So he got the vehicle examiner to be extra strict in checking it over cos out of earshot the VE told me that the Ministry arsehole had said that.
The look on the Ministry arsehole's face when the VE said there's only a bit on play on a bush which wouldn't be a MOT failure so he's free to leave was priceless.
After the PNC check came back clear I drove away giving the Ministry arsehole the 🇬🇧V for victory🤣
@@R.Sole88109theres a video on youtube of some guy in the uk filtering the diesel dye out through kitty litter
@@Vicious_Retard
Aye, there's a few videos of legends removing the dye.
I can't verify how effective they are.😄
@@Vicious_Retard I run cherry flavored diesel in my tdi lol also love the username! 🤣
Does anybody know if this works on PD Engines?
Any way you can fixture some hair Gel for that thing
Don't you have to warm your fuel lines when you use these mixtures?
Yeah in colder climates I believe you do. The oil can become viscous as temperature drops and that can mess with your pumps and injectors
How much would you say that 2000l of that 90/10 mix cost all together ?
My 1994 Mitsubishi L200 runs on 100% cooking oil but settled for 50/50 to be safe
Love it!! 👍🏾
I run a mix of automatic transmission fluid 4 gallons of diesel 250 gallons of transmission fluid. Theprimary factor is high pressure injectors, no rail systems.
I love the smell that generates when I run atf fluid.
Do you experience any noticeable losses in power when driving? Also I suppose the overall fuel consumption will rise when driving on veg oil, is that correct?
Have you seen garage 54 turn used tyres into fuel?!?
Love them guys,,,,,,,,, they do some pretty interesting stuff, sometimes it works, sometimes not so much but always interesting.
Nice one
Fun fact: McDonalds (in the UK at least) runs their trucks off this, all McDonalds trucks run off used cooking oil with some additives, it saves them money and gives them good marketing.
Can i use extra virgin olive oil
It better not be virgin by the time you put it in an engine
Absolutely. Would be expensive though!
Can we use wate oil diesel as long as we stay off the road though? Bit like how I use red diesel in my 4x4 but it's off the road
Pretty sure if you are running veg oil then it's fine, as it's already had the necessary taxes taken from it when purchased from wherever it was purchased from prior to being used :)
That’s a lovely old Volvo.
Hello, do you know how can we use Crude Glycerin from bio diesel process into diesel generators and Camins?
I live in Baltimore.. my home runs on heating 🛢 oil!/ or diesel *.. anyone have ideas for me to create alternative?.. now my step-dad shop is in backyard and has drums full of used motor oil 🛢/ & bad gasoline too.
Heating oil #2 is literally diesel fuel, only difference is the red dye and the higher sulfur content (high sulfur is better for older engines!)
Nothin like an e85 vegetable oil mix 😎
i ran a fiat marea 2.4 jtd on a mix 80/20 veg oil and diesel. at one point here it was cheaper to buy 1l of veg oil than 1l of diesel.
Hi scotty I was wondering is there a possibility of changing my fuel system to a mechanical
Nothing is impossible, but this would be so impractical, best option, find a car that likes this fuel
@@coolhandluke1503 It's also probably illegal, due to newer cars having strict emissions standards that a mechanically injected engine can't meet.
Do you actually have people check your fuel to make sure it's legal?
Not anymore. It used to be a thing when diesels were new on the roads, they may have done the odd spot check, but now that diesels are so popular in the UK they don't have the resources to check anyone anymore.
can you show exactly how you mix and how mouch
Excellent video.
Does it work for 1.9 TDI from 2002?
Instead of mixing the oil with petrol. Can you use Ethanol/E85 since that’s cheaper where I live
This guy looks like he's straight out of 1985. Nevertheless, free diesel is pretty cool 😂
Cant wait for the new content
Senti Scotty ma sai se anche una Fiat Panda 4x4 del 90 può andare ad olio o serve il biodiesel?
Hai una vecchia panda diesel??? E per giunta 4x4??? Incredibile! Secondo me essendo un vecchio diesel può andare ad olio, ma è sempre meglio informarsi.
Used to run a 1998 mercedes vito cdi on 50% cooking oil no problems.
There's also a kerosene alternative. 4 gallons oil,1 gallon kerosene. Try it out to verify
My neighbor ran oil from the doughnut shops. My son claimed his exhaust smelled like doughnuts. What's yours she'll like?
Have looked into any water fueled engines?
Why are there not modern cars made specifically to run on mixes like this? As in it’s surely less polluting and more eco?
Fair play fella
Would I be able to do this with my 2009 Volvo v50 estate
I've been thinking of making a smaller batch to use in my diesel heater. I don't wanna run it in my cummins I care about, no matter how much I filtered it lol Maybe if I write the cummins off one day and buy a beater ford I will
Can you use heating oil in a diesel car
I think this man could be lead singer in a punk rock band for a night job.
Is it a diesel motor in that Volvo?
This scares me deeply... Like seriously fucking scares me, and i think it might be because i truly cant tell if im being lied to... I mean I don't have a diesel engine or anything and I'm never gonna try this, but for some reason this still scares the hell out of me...
is w123 diesel good with used engine oil?
That's awesome !! I currently have my BMW 320d runs lovely on 70% oil to 30% diesel 👌👌 every saving penny counts nowadays!
What year is your bmw
@@bobkirwan9877 2007 m47 engine
does the vegtable oil have to be used?
Nope, can be new. But in my country new oil costs more than diesel
Biodiesel is the best man
My truck loves it
Hi. what can i use if i don't have metanol?
gasoline
For transesterificaton? Ethanol. But it has to by DRY! Like 99.6%. And can be dried chemically.
which cares are able to run 100% on vegetable oil?
Will this work on bmw 540d rental? 😂😂😂😂
😂
can old busses run on it? (like these old kennworth busses)
Can it run on every kind of oil or no?
It can but if you get caught with it you get fined per litre in your car and the car gets scrapped
Can this work in 1.9 tdi?
Dude why am I seeing a younger Marv from Home Alone 😂
