    A friend of a friend of mine based in San Diego has a 300SD w126 Benz and a 95 Dodge Cummins turbodiesel. Both run on free, used veggie oil. They just filter it, add some fuel catalyst, some RUG (regular unleaded gasoline) for better combustion and lubricity in the cold season, and some diesel for added lubricity.

    The result?

    San Diego to San Francsico cost $6! To think, that's a 9 hour drive! Among other savings as well, like running these cars for a combined 30,000 miles without any problems so far, fuel savings in the thousands of $$$, and French Fries smelling/hunger-inducing rides!

    Sabi nga niya eh, "If you run on free used veggie oil, fuel economy doesn't matter!"
