Biodiesel Running (CBS News)

KCBS 2 News, Los Angeles, CA

When the tank on his truck runs low, Jules Dervaes looks for a fillup. But unlike most of us, Jules doesn't stop at the corner gas station. In fact, he passes by all those high-price petrols. Instead, the former math teacher heads home to his garage where he fills 'er up with his homebrewed biodiesel.

@GoingOrganic1 from what i can tell ,,, the diesel was made to run on vegetable oil in the first place ,,, but you must check the ph of the oil before using it thats the only catch ,,, you dont want it to be to acidic but thats the easy part ,,, and make sure you ilter it good ,,, and from what i can tell the dirtier the better ,, or the more used the better

@lesterclaypool1 So can you just use the warmer and avoid mixing in the regular diesel?

[lesterclaypool1]

@GoingOrganic1 yes a warmer would works well ,,, but i believe you use regular diesel as the add mix,,,,and the dirtier the better

[GoingOrganic1]

@lesterclaypool1 I thought that I had read that the bio diesel solidifies when it gets cold. It said, for that reason it needed to be mixed with gasoline. Can you use a "fuel warmer" instead?

[lesterclaypool1]

its a good idea to have a fuel warmer

[lesterclaypool1]

How hard is it to arrange to get grease from restaurants these days? What kind of restaurant would be most receptive? Do I offer to buy their used oil, or to dispose of it for free?
