@craigggy So if you can't inhale, you contaminate the environment. It is alreay in the environment. And by the way, I watched a few videos about free energy and bio energy, and majority of videos are from Aussie. You guys seems are ruined by high gas prices or like to experiment.
@JackD314 depends on the year of the truck bro.. if its a newer truck u may need mods.. mine is a 1985 ford you can check by looking on the net.. this is y i have an older diesel. i wanted to be able to get fuel in a bad time and it looks like it might be a good idea..
I love the very ending while driving " Do not inhale the vapour..repeat do not inhale the vapour. Thanks for the Vid anyway cragggy. Take it easy my man :)
dude your not making it right you put in the methanol first then your soda and who makes 20 litters at a time that would take forever to full your car up
@stdudly01 the right way to do it first u put the methanol then your soda or noah then u stir it then u heat the oil up to 130f then add the methanol and soda into the oil. i bet it takes that guy 2 days to make biodiesel me i have 16 50gallon drums 4 of them is for the oil and methanol and NOAH then 4 more for the stelling tanks then 4 more for my wash tanks then 4 more for my holding tanks so in a day i can make 150 gallon of biodies that can last me a mouth.
@stdudly01 so where are your videos of making biodiesel? At least this guy tries to help us, what are you doing besides bragging about your enormous setup? Let us have some vids of you instructing the rest of us on how to make this fuel.

Good!! but, caustic soda corrodes metals secially pistons that are made on Aluminium,I´m afraid that caustic soda particles will remain into your machine Are your car still running?
This is the best video I have seen on how to make Biodiesel. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Questions: 1) Should the oil be heated greater than 50 or 60 degrees? 2) Is the temperature in Fahrenheit or Centigrade? 3) What typr of container you heated the oil in - plastic?
hi craiggy iv had a look for a heating element but have not been able to find one i was just wondering if you now what other things i could get it from please
Crude oil is precessed/refined to make petroleum products, motor oil, gas, karosen and Diesel. Used motor oil breaks down, has additives and fine metal particles. Bottom line YOU can't easily refine used motor oil to fuel. I'm sure with a sophisticated expensive process it can be done, probably cost more than its worth. They do recycle motor oil. What they do with it, not sure, but it could be used for making asphalt or lower grade oil products for example.
Used cooking oil is far safer than used motor oil though has to have good filtering using a catalist like methanol and drain cleaner sodium hydroxide.
Can you also pee in the oil? Can it be used to rinse the bad evil glicerine and hydroxide. Also i am thinking to use my used toiletwater for rinse all the poo and the bad stuff out? What you think about my ideas?
I expect Pee has roughly the same weight water has.
Expect little cleansing from Pee compared to the Methanol caustic soda mixture.
Do not worry if the oil is a bit thick and the mixture gives poor separation simply let it settle a greater time and when using expect a few stalls until the engines hot.
Hi Craigggggy thx for your fast reply. I tryed to use my toiletwater but the poo not mix with the glicerol. It make just a smelly mess. Also its very difficult to have a shit above the bukket with oil. Pls explain me... is your name Craiggggy our is your name Christ´s love?
thanks craigggy very easy to follow mate but what about titration ? dont you need to do that ? or is titration a load of bull!!!! i find your way easy to make biodiesel but dont want to damage my car .
I have used Canola oil waste and throw away the denser stuff at the bottom negating the need to titration when visably the oils look the same each time.
I reccomend you try Titration to start with to alleviate concerns unless you live close and wish a simple demonstation to see up close.
hi, I wanted to know where did you say you bought the ethanol did not find the company, hope you can let me know, so that I can order it, would appreciate it.
Your videos are very entertaining - enjoyed them a lot!
Just a note about mixing the caustic and methanol. It is safer to add the caustic to the full amount of methanol, little by little.
So put the 4 litres in the tank, and sprinke the 140 g into it. That way, the methanol won't overheat or boil and you will get less dangerous methanol fumes. Remember methanol is pretty poisonous stuff.
Thanks Graham but the Methanol is not very hot and smokey until it joins the used oil and using a small amount allows the caustic soda to bang around on the sides of the container when you shake it, helping to break any bumps aiding dissolving.
I appreiciate your attention thanks.
When the reaction occurs best to stay upwind from the easy to see smokey fumes.
hi, dont use methalated spirit as it seperates fom the oil. get white spirits(its called mineral spirits in some parts of the world). i have seen and worked on land rovers, misibushi shoguns, volkswagen, ford, vauxhall, all running fine on veg oil. i have seen two UK car shows using veg oil in cars, one uses white spirit the other doesnt, but it must be left for a couple of days for the white spirit to thin the oil.
i have done all the caustic soda mixing stuff but an easier way is simply mix the veg oil with white spirits(mineral spirits) at a ratio of 10% and leave for a couple of days to thin itself. before doing this with used oil its best to let the oil settle for a few days and just use the top layer of oil and avoid the white cloudy gunk beneath it. :-)
hi, hows it going? is there a part two to this video? just wondered what you done after seperation and if you washed the oil through with water afterwards as if you put it in your tank still tasting of caustic soda it will corrode your fuel lines,, by the way, what make of car do you use this in?
never use white spirit,in the uk this would just land you in the same deep water as using red diesil if you were stopped and dipped at the road side,if you think the £400 on the spot fine and your car inpounded till you pay it is worth the hassle then on you go.
i use straight svo in the summer and it work fine,sometimes putting a few gals of derv in when it turns colder,my cherokee purs like a kitten,no problems.
hi, yes just add white spirit to veg oil at a 10% ratio. i run a twin tank system. if you are using a single tank then you need to mix it with diesel at a 50/50 ratio so it will start in the morning. as winter draws in you add mor diesel 75/25. watch on youtube- top gear veg oil for more info ;-}
did you titrate? Or do you have a feel for the oil already?
richarddr1234 3 weeks ago
@richarddr1234 This is part one of 3 Titration is the meths and drain cleaning mixture that pulls the muck from the oil.
You can use pool tools to measure the PH or you can use your eye and common sense.
If you see good separation your on the right track.

Yes Appears so
1 / 20th of 20 is 1
4 goes into 20 5 times so 5 goes into 10 twice change the decimal point again for 1 and .2 x 5 = 1
140 grams of soda per 20litres
so 70 per ten litres . Change the decimal point again for 1 and you get 7 grams of soda for 1 litre of oil.
Very good right at the edge of my Mathamatical ability.
