Want to run your car ‘cheap as chips’? The Top Gear team find out how. A little vegetable oil and your volvo diesel will cost you as little as 26p a litre! From the BBC.
CHUCK
I knew you were going to say that
That’s just me, thinking the impossible
water doesn’t burn
I was thinking something impossible but I just want to share my idea.
Can you run a car on water?
If it does, we would save a large amount of gas.
That is pretty stupid I can tell
now they have like 500 people, in the video like 5 people…
its perfectly fine on older cars, newer cars have problems though. best to mix it with some diesel though.
You have to be careful;some car/van/truck manufacturers don’t recommend veg oil biodiesel and could refuse to honour warranty claims/servicing for problems caused by it. Older engines pre-commonrail may well take it BUT the newer more modern commonrail diesel engines may not like it and could breakdown/foul up on it.
Short answer - yes. Longer answer - go google;-) There’s a lot of info out there that Jems missed out. There can be very big issues with using veggie oil so it pays to read up on it. It’s worth the effort.
Good news is the tax position has changed - in the oil burners favour!!
Well, they do say that any OLD diesel will do, wich clearly suggests this is nothing you pour down a brand new high-performance Beemer. However in a old, crude diesel engine, It´ll probably work fine.
i had heard of bio-diesel by using palm oil..but not normal vege.
no wonda he tried it on a old volvo..dont try dis at home lol
dont be stupid of course you cant sue the bbc they never said you have to try it, and its up to you,if you try it and the car breaks down who stupid fault is that?
can you mix the vegetable oil with normal diesel? Because Jeremy said you need to bleed out the system…????
This is not true biodiesel, that is thinning out the waste oil. Biodiesel is the transesterification process of taking the fatty acids out and placing an alcohol in its place.
That would be your responsibility to check final production testing. I have been in the biodiesel business for 4 years and have had zero issues.
Yes… For frying some hamburgers before using the oil.
can i sue the bbc if damage is done to my engine ? making biodiesel isnt as easy as this video claims !! what about the fatty acids ? they didnt even check to see if the biodiesel was the correct PH !!
isn’t that why you add the white spirit?
where i work i think they do
Maybe you can use diesel for cooking.
I bet the smoke out of the exhaust smelled like food
nope it was in 1893, he designed the first engine to run on coal dust, which obviously didnt work too well.
after this engine he made one that was similar, that ran on oil, and peanut oil was handy for hime at the time, so thats what it ran on
@ mageac , no the Inventor Rudolf Diesel used peanut oil for it and didn’t invent the engine for the dyno stuff, that only came later with the oil companies
the audience was soooooo small
That’s true what they show. For an entire month I have been using vegetable oil for my old Mercedes 300D and the engine was working like a Swiss watch. But remember not to use this “fuel” when the temperature is low because the vegetable oil becomes too dense.
do we still need those petroleums?
