What Is Biodiesel? Straight Vegetable Oil vs Bio Diesel.

[JustinoFundido]

I bet those are Monsanto seeds. Don't let Monsanto know your making fuel out of their seeds. They will claim they own the fuel.

[METALMAN4Wii]

@JustinoFundido The sad part is it's true there Freaking Nazi's some farmer had some Monsanto seeds spill onto his property at the end of the road from a truck which grow and Monsanto tried suing him it was in some documentary I don't think they won the lawsuit tho thank God or the flying spaghetti monster....!

[sard37]

Ilike this guy, he knows his history, ive been telling people about this for years

[drogoKoJ]

question what about coconut oils? my parrent run a diesle in an area where coconuts are readily available

[WoodyMathias]

Great explanation, if you arent a teacher, you should be!

[72fr250]

OR just mix HALF vegetable oil, and HALF Diesel fuel and just skip all this complicated crap

[guppyelf]

@72fr250 yep. u can even mix a little gas w it just to keep it hot. about a half gallon to 20 gallons of veggie

[slapoutz]

i know bio is about 2 mpg under diesel but how does svo fare?

[SuperButch888]

coconut oil is the best.....been tested, and so is palm oil......beats the hell out of soybean, peanut, canola and olive oil.

[notgodsemigod]

Still many drivers living and driving in hot climates do use SVO in their diesel engines and state they have no problems for many 1000s of kilometers.

However for most diesel engines out there, the ideal fuel is biodiesel which is simply oil without its glycerin (subtracted by the process of transesterification, a process you can do at home if you can take a care a bit of your work and take 1-2 precautions).

Biodiesel is the best fuel you can put on your diesel, far above petroleum diesel

[MrSuPeRsLy21]

So aside from all the mumbo jumbo, if i walk up to my toyota camry with a gallon of vege oil, im gonna make it down the street, or what?

[notgodsemigod]

@MrSuPeRsLy21 Is your Camry a diesel? Then yes. BUT if you use straight veggie oil then you have to make sure your injections will tolerate it. As the video tells you nicely, the straight oil is viscous especially in low temperatures and as such most modern cars' systems do have problems. Also something not mentioned often is that engine wear with straight oil is pronounced - ideally an engine must be wholy designed for straight oil but unfortunately no manufacturer wants to do that.

[anavrin761520]

i get it now. this vid cleared it up for me

[catscratchass]

HEMP SEED OIL ....

[younitehumanity]

I run my diesel rabbit on 75% heating oil and 25% used engine oil (contains some ATF and Brake fluids too). Been running since 4 years now without any problems. No significant smoke or anything other like that.

[mircs1979]

ve he cle

[mongreleater]

Would hot weather be enough to keep the fuel from coagulating?

[sbeer6er]

I work for a large trucking company and the problems we ran into with biodiesel is that we tried to run 10% biodiesel and what happened was our gas mileage went from 2.6 mpg to 2.2 mpg, so it wasn't doing any good for us.

[Veikra]

aww that sucks

[circusboy90210]

first experimental engine, built 1893 together with the Maschinenfabrik Augsburg (MAN) in Germany led to its destructio, little bit ealier than 1903. however biodiesel's low cost can make it benificial to run at full usage vs. small percentages.

[05harty]

use the vegetable oil AS FUEL not engine oil.

on old diesels

[Delticola]

@05harty You can run it on new diesels as well. My friend just got his 2004 Cummins on oil ! So far, no problems. The only problem with a newer engine might be the injector pump or the injectors, but if your oil is hot enough, it's no problem!

[3ddonovan]

I use new clean Vegetable oil as motor oil and it works real well.

[Delticola]

@3ddonovan I highly doubt that it works really well. The chemistry between vegetable based oil and crude based oil is very different when it comes to lubrication of metals and longevity of that lubrication property! I bet if you are still driving your car with veg. oil as the lubrication of motor oil you have added a 10,000 miles of wear and tear for every mile you drove down the street.

[Delticola]

@3ddonovan Guys like me who burn vegetable oil as fuel need to change the engine oil more often because the vegetable oil combustion in the cylinder mixes slightly with engine oil and that contaminated engine oil first attacks the valves! So it you are serious you are likely in real trouble right about now.

[phordguy]

"more soybeans than any other planet or any other area"

Which ones exactly Gradon? LOL

[greatworkteam]

i think he said "plant"

[imnotbncre8ive]

plant oils and fish oils are generally good for you. the fats in candy bars aren't.

[sonever1]

Utah is exemplary.

[akshona]

Did you know Fords Model-T was actually designed to run off Ethanol

[WC9456]

i knew that, its pretty amazing that the world was so close to be energy efficient, and pollutant free as far as vehicles go, if ford would of made it run on ethanol, i think all the other car manufactures would have to. world would be great

[Raith83]

Ford and George Washing Carver worked together on 'alternative' fuels together for a while as well! Interesting stuff!!!

[000eMan000]

If you filter, and heat up vegetable oil, how long do you have to wait before you can use it

please answer

[megahosters]

2 mins.

[MadSmokerBBQ]

@000eMan000 I'm no expert but I've seen fuel line heaters that work well. It heats the oil inside the fuel line on its way from the tank to the injectors.

[Riloman]

haha... reminds me of my chem teacher

[ozzie454]

hahaha so true.

[sonever1]

Interesting that this type of advanced, high-functioning person tends to have such a plain and modest manner.

I would like to be more like him.

[FlanneltheNerfer]

What is the name of the next video in the series? What video do I watch after this?

[D4v1id]

@FlanneltheNerfer i would guess "Mixing Biodiesel (Part 1) | Bio Diesel Fuel Production"

[D4v1id]

@FlanneltheNerfer i would guess "Mixing Biodiesel (Part 1) | Bio Diesel Fuel Production"

[TheJammer1227]

@FlanneltheNerfer The next in the series is "The Chemistry of Biodiesel (Part 1)"

[NEON147]

@FlanneltheNerfer i think its:

Mixing Biodiesel (Part 2) | Bio Diesel Fuel Production

[brad5386]

I think it was BEFORE 1903

[AutoTAM]

Great info.....but we NEED to see his FACE! Totally lost me there.

[tanktube]

yea I kind of started daydreaming a bit! but I tuned back in! good stuff! Makes me want to go buy a diesel!
