With all this talk about BIO Diesel and Fuel Lube Additives, as anyone thought about just adding straight cooking oil (Canola, Peanut) or anything else. Like a qt every fill up. Since BIO is filtered cooking oil why not just pore in new as a lube????

 

Ask jimmydiablo, I think he is running straight veggie oil in his truck. I am running b20 and I kow that it works better than D2 with any additives.

 

fats (olive oil, old grease, canola oil, etc)

are three long chain 'fuel like' molecules
attached to a glycerin connector

to make these fats more like conventional diesel fuel
you need to react them with alcohol to release the glycerin.

This is the simple step that a 'Bio-Fuel' factory does
to make fat and waste cooking oil into diesel fuel that won't gell quickly

You can burn fat directly,
but most times it needs to be heated with a coil in the tank to work well

I understand how BIO is made. I'm talking about just using a qt of veggie oil for fuel pump lube, instead of 2 cycle oil or any of the other snake oils used. According to the LUBE Study on here previously Bio (B20 I believe) had the best anti wear properties of anything. So, I was wondering if anyone had tried it, or it wasn't safe, or anything else...
Thanks for the input so far though.
