Cooking oil Used as Diesel!

Legacy_user

Someone has told me they've successfully run their family car on just cooking oil!

They claim its Cheaper, more economical... and the way to go...

Is this just plain rubbish?

Please shed some light on this for me,

danny.

There's a thread on this somewhere. You have to convert your car to do it though.

It's true!!

This has been discussed on many boards. Just do a search for 'Diesel'

I started this one:

Excellent. Thanks for that. 27p per litre, wow!

Case closed, Diesel for me, forget the SL 500, its too quick anyway

This was posted on the Lidl/Aldi thread

Seen in Lidl car park this morning, an old bloke cheerfully (and blatantly) filling up his diesel car with several bottles of cheap cooking oil! I knew you could run a diesel car on cooking oil, but it is classed as tax evasion if you don't declare it and pay duty, so I was gobsmacked (but rather impressed) to see this chappie in the act today
