  • This car is now scrap--But due to a big rear end shunt!! I put at least 10,000 more miles on it with oil/diesel mix and it with a bit more fuelling on the pump it ran just the same- Will be missed :(

  • Hi mate, got the same car, on an M plate, runs sweet as a nut on cooking oil, used or new & bio diesel, had it 6 years & no engine probs yet!

  • load of crap it works a treat, bulshit it rots seals mine 25 years old motor ran for 3 years on it, never harmed my car, SHOGUN. they put the price up to the same as Diesel, so there was no point, but your MOT will read nearly ZERO emissions. "IT WORKS". FULL-STOP.

  • did u fit a bosch pump?

    the isuzu engines have a bosch copy made in japan.

    they all will run on veg oil but u get problems with the seals and unless u use an additive u get eventual residue build up in the pump even on the bosch.

    I have an old ford diesel with bosch pump and I am thinking of buying new veg oil (£1.10 a litre).

    idealy the glycerin should be replaced with methanol and removed using sodium hydroxide.
