have a google there are loads of guide

What car are you thinking of running this on? As it might be easier just to mix it with diesel after filtering rather than refiining it

Sounds like a Coronation Street plot line.

Oh, wait... it was.

Just keep any sparks away from it :D

Check whether your engine will run ok on Bio some of the later common rail diesels have issues with the fuel system and seals. Might be worth a look here:

a truck with an old Gardner in it should be ok
