Default Re: [MV] Used cooking oil

Darrell,
Algae would be a concern if there is water in the fuel. Use "Bio-Kleen" or
"Bio-Con" or some other additive. It contains an alcohol which will pick up
the water and burn it.
Unwased biodiesel contains some methanol and will help get rid of the water.
Also, keep your fuel tank topped off (to fill line) to reduce water from
condensation.

Veggie oil and biodiesel contains more oxygen than diesel and may give you a
boost as a result.

Do you suppose that the extra soot in the exhaust will cause the annual
inspection to indicate too many HC's, or is the plan not to run UCO for the
few days prior to the inspection?

Sonny, I can't speak for Darrell, of course, but The UCO must be filtered
before used. I run it through a 5-micron filter before pouring it into the
fuel tank.

In Florida we don't have an annual inspection for any vehicle unless its a
commercial vehicle.

Yes. New York and many other states require it.

Where do you live?

Georgia.

We probably have annual inspection of Commercial
Vehicles, but that's as much as I know. There's
annual emissions inspection for gasoline powered
vehicles in the Atlanta Metro Area, but that's
only for newer vehicles (less than 20 years old).
Older vehicles are exempt from emissions
inspections.
