Greasel

Saw this on the local news here in NC last night. This guy drove from Missouri to here (NC) using used cooking oil in a 94 Furd. Looks like a neat set up. Filled up a chinese restaurant to go back. <br>Here is the web site www.greasel.com<br><br>Sorry, I am not smart enough to know how to do an active link ???

Re:Greasel

I think I'll stick with real diesel fuel....but its interesting to run any diesel on free, waste vegetable oil....just carry a cooler with french fries and hamburger patties then I could stop at any wayside rest and deep fry up a meal ;D

Re:Greasel

Most forum's software will recognize the prefix www. as a internet address and will automatically build it as a link.<br><br>like for example www.wildcatdiesel.com<br><br>You just type the address.......and let technology do the rest.

Re:Greasel

You can also get cRaZy on the posting and post something like (minus the spaces of course):

[ url=http://www.wildcatdiesel.com ][ color=blue ]Wildcat Diesel[ /color ][ /url ]

Which looks like this:

Wildcat Diesel

Re:Greasel

I can see this engine fuel interfering with my George Foreman quest. I might have to do some sabotage...LOL <br><br>Maybe it I get rid of my Scotty Air II and coat my turbo in teflon I will have a non stick fry pan on the fly?<br><br>I would have to go back to the factory air box to get the temps just right for cooking.

Re:Greasel

Medium Rare steak requires the BHAF/325 HP at 70 mph for 8 minutes. 8)<br><br>Oatmeal cookies requires a Mega Cannon 375 HP at 65 mph for 5 minutes. :-*<br><br>Crispy bacon requires the factory air box/filter, 900 HP at 90 MPH for 30 miles and a return tray for the drippings to the tank. <br><br>Slow cooked roasted chicken requires a Scotty Air II, 500 HP at 75 mph for an hour. <br><br>Coffee requires the grounds to be mixed in the radiator, plumbed to the washer pump and into the under dash nozzle or an IV. ;D<br><br>Actually I read that site and I think that something like that would be COOOoOoOOOOooooOOooooOoL to do...I have a slip tank. I am going to find out about using the same tank for diesel or used veggy oil and if that would create a problem. I like the idea of free and theres plenty of restaruants here that toss the old oil.

Re:Greasel

Here's something that came to me after coffee this morning.<br><br>Wouldn't it be illegal to drive on any state or federal road using used cooking oil because you are not paying any road tax ??? ???<br><br>Just a thought!!!<br><br>
