You will fail just as you have been told you would, and as others have.

Yeah, like I said, I don't know. All that I've really heard is from a forum specific to my car, and a lot of people reported around 5 MPG gains. I still would rather do some testing by myself to be able to tell if it really works though.

It's a proven fact it works. All of the boats ran by Channel Island National Park in Ventura county Use Recycled Vegetable oil in it's boats to get from the mainland to the Islands. What they do is lix it in with some diesel fuel with it, so it's at a lower percentage, and run them. Straight Vegetable oil in a diesl engine will damage it over time, but works great out of the box with no refining or modification to the oil itself. Mixing it with other agents tends to reduce that wear caused by it.

Oh, I know that THAT works. I was replying to G.I.R.'s remark that he doesn't know if a light acetone mixture with normal fuel will help it.

but wait, with burning vegetable oil, isn't it still giving out harmful emissions, or maybe just not as much? it's a good idea, and would be easy to implement without having to change alot of stuff, but i just feel like it's a temporary fix and we should move to electricity.

According to some sites I just looked at, biodiesel/vegetable oil gives out less emissions.

Apparently, Such additive is supposed to help lower the damages caused by straight vegetable oil on a Diesel Engine. If used together, it lowers the viscosity of the oil and allows it to move through the fuel lines quicker, without losing power due to diluting the fuel and reducing performance.

some scientists are still questioning is water a unlimited resource and even if it is theres so many cars wed be running out of water faster then it can renew itself were so Dependant on cars that it would drain all are water off the earth.
and if we move to electricity it will just pump up the rates of fossil fuel that is used to make electricity, and we still haven't found a way that can make as much energy as burning fossil fuels.

I'm guessing YOU never even bothered to read the thread eh'? >_>

Th2mods · Post by **Th2mods** » Mon Sep 03, 2007 8:03 pm

i did, and there was a discussion about using up our recourses for fuel, then to process the water the fuel prices will go up, then i mentioned cold fusion.

what am i not getting here?

so you mean they made it, but had no clue how the hell they made it?
