Veggie oil, in your case, SVO, can be mixed in any ratios with regular diesel although I wouldn't recommend it. Biodiesel can be mixed in any ratio with little concern, other than clouding in cool weather. The problem is the make up of straight SVO can cause problems, if it's not heated or processed to change the properties of it.

We have been making biodiesel, (processed SVO), since last summer and running it in blends up to 100%. It's great stuff.

Anyone interested in alternative fuels should check it out, whether SVO, Biodiesel or whatever. You need to decide what works for you.

Making biodiesel's not as complicated as first appears. It costs about $200 to make a processor and about 60 cents per gallon to make. It's probably cheaper to get set up than the dual tank method to heat and run SVO.

Yes, there are dangerous chemicals you work with which you must consider,(Sodium Hydroxide mixture, LYE, i.e. Drano ) and Methanol. However, there are chemicals we use working on vehicles in our garage that can be just as dangerous.

I am not in the business, although my son is, but I'm not here to promote him. If he wants to be a sponsor on this site, then he can promote himself. However, I think most people can just buy stuff they need locally and produce their own product, whether it is biodiesel, SVO, greasel or whatever.

If anyone is interested in this, you may contact me directly or start a post.
