My cousins have been using Bio-Diesel for 8 years at around $0.25 a litre.
The vehicles have never had a spanner (wrench) on them. One is a Toyota
Landcruiser the other is a Rover car.
They have fish & chip (fries) oil coming out of their ears and supply is
more than they can use. Both have around 20 - 44gal drums of supply at any
one time.
They have a real professional home setup, even with their own bowsers.
