@XitUp Biodiesel is not VO. Pure VO, yes of course that can't be used in modern CR diesels, but WVO biodiesel is fully reacted oil and has a viscosity to traditional diesel.
I don't like all this talk of a plug-in hybrid doing 100mpg, or whatever. Basically its doing 40 miles on no fuel, and then 60 miles on the next gallon. What you get as a combination depends on how its used. If you only do 30 miles a day it will do infinity mpg. On the other hand it you drive from London to Athens, you'll run out of electricity half way to Dover, and you'll basically be driving a Diesel thereafter.
Something I'd be interested in is how long the DPF would hold up if they engine isn't being used much.
There are already reports of them failing due to not being recharged enough via 'italian tune up' and I can only imagine it would be worse in a hybrid.
It's called an 'exhaust.'

@twelvebears1971 it's slightly thicker, obviously not as thick as SVO. But it does gel in cold weather.

@gio70v I was wondering if in UK they allow left hand drive?

That does take an awful long time though.

Not really ... a big low pressure tank will do it, and those are easy to make.
