Veggi Car

I've been doing alot of research on running a truck or car on used vegetale oil and I thought I'd share some of the info I've gathered. With rising fuel costs, wars for oil, and the possiblity of having past our peek oil production, it seems like now would be a good time to start looking for alternatives. I personaly don't think it can replace oil but, I don't think there is realy any single answer. I feel we need to look at all of the options. We've got electric, gas, air, ethonal and veggi oil. But for now lets talk desiel/ veggi. I'll get off my soap box now and get into the nuts and bolts. One thing to look at though is ethonal straight veggi oil are not the same thing. Ethonal takes alot more energy to produce.

    I'm selling my veggie-oil Jetta on eBay! Item # 120485151973. Check it out!

    AS SEEN ON TV! You are bidding on on one of the most famous alternative fuel vehicles since Doc Brown's DeLorean from Back to the Future!

    Featured on Good Morning America, CNBC, MSNBC, and Wall Street Journal Report, this 2001 VW Jetta TDI has been evangelizing the use of alternative fuels for years.

    Beat high gas prices and DRIVE FOR FREE using waste vegetable oil! Professionally converted by Smarter Fuel using the Greasecar kit, the WVO system works perfectly.

    This vehicle starts every time and runs very well. I installed a FrostHeater brand block heater for easy cold weather starts. Just plug it in (I set it on a timer) and the engine turns over immediately. It also enables you to make the switch to veggie oil sooner and helps you get heat inside the car much quicker.

    As the pictures show, the car is very clean for a vehicle with almost 158,000 miles and has no major issues. I drove this car over 100 m
