oledodgediesel yes a 50/50 mix is fine,it will still start and run fine, in the winter you just increase the mix of diesel to 75/25
if your winters arnt too cold then 85/15 will be ok,in the UK it can be used at 75/25 and in the summer 50/50. i doubt very much it will start from cold on 97% veg oil. whats with the whiskey idea? wont that seperate out from the veg oil? minerals spirits is a better idea for thinning it. i run a twin tank system so i have no starting issues from cold.
well tink about the principle of conservation of energy, the amount of energy u need to extract the hydrogen from the water = amount of energy liberated when the oxygen combines with the hydrogen in ur engine to give back water. taking into account enerygy losses during each process, it will still be inefficient. however, if we use suitable catalysts, we might require less energy to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen in water n this might be a solution. but such catalysts are unknown!
Yup, the idea is classic but only smart people seem to consideret!
Edd China could solve this serious environmental issue- he is a genius and knows everything there is to know about engines. Please remember his name because he’s one to watch.
This is pretty kool, my cousin also did this and took the car all over the states with it for his thesis. He kept a journal and put it on line too
how fast does it burn did he say 5 gallons gets him 250 miles??? shiiittt no joke imma look into this
Hey how do you use water for fuel? That would be better than Veggie oil! I’ve been messing around with water electrolisis, but how do you completely run it on water?
you know the idea of it is generaly good, but the fact is if every car ran on veggie oil it wouldnt work. There arnt that many fat kids eating mcdonalds. Its good to show that we have the technology to run on things other then gas but its not something everyone in the world could run on. But props on being one who does it. I dont think im personaly ready for the Mcdonals fris air freshiner
Has anyone experimented with veg oil AND HHO together? Why do it, you might ask… would virtually eliminate pollution
as it is, a staggering area of bush is cut down to plant palms that oil is extracted from every year, it seems to me that if everyone was running their cars on it, this would become much worse
Thank you soo much for making this film! Ive been looking into using biodiesal since I am a poor college student. lol
Can you start the car on bio-diesel(instead of petroleum diesel) to heat it and then switch to veggie oil.
“No harmful emissions”, not totally true, its debatable, especially compared to low sulfur diesel, but its not worse. “Don’t support war don’t buy oil”? Ha-ha I only buy oil domestically produced, it the second pump from the left at my gas station with the USA flag on it. (kidding) MILLIONS OF GALLONS OF WASTE GREASE DUMPED IN SEWER? Really?
You should know Brasil is cutting itÂīs jungle so people like you can ride your car.
Another problem is that there is a lot more oil than there is vegi-oil. Unless someone makes it easier for Americans to drive up and fill up on vegi-oil, they are going to continue to be lazy.
they might not be buying the oil, but someone is going to BUY it, and that oil has to be produced somehow – needing some resources right?
And in the end of the day, oil is used for cooking. If food is going to be used as fuel, which is the tendency, we will have bigger problems with starvation than we have with pollution…
So that’s why I think that is not the way to go – the regenerating energy sources are though.
its not free, it cost 50cent to buy the waste oil, in my area I offer to pay $1 per gallon, and the resturant still won’t sell it to me
Hippies…
o you mean the delusion you call the “Real world”. why don’t you get your head out of societies ass and open your mind alittle bit.

Engines have been made that can switch between different fuels but they’re currently relatively expensive because you have to change the fuel-to-air ratio for every different fuel type.
I’m deathly allergic to peanuts; i will go into anaphylactic shock.
If i used peanut oil in my car, would i have an allergic reaction?
Serious question, i know if i converted my car to this, i would someday encounter peanut oil.
Anybody know where i can find an answer to my question?
Besides an allergy specialist. Let’s not point out the obvious
If you’re going to insult “LIBERALS”, shouldn’t you at least spell what they are correctly?
