Ok now ive got your attention
i have been looking around for alternative fuels. for those of you who have not seen this there has been a small discusion on the Mitsubishi forum http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=11331
they have been discussing vegatable oil as an alternative fuel (50/50 mix)
has anybody tried it :?:
i will be following this up with some links shortly :D
woody:
here are the links as i said
there seems to be a lot of grey area concerning the rate of tax payable
but for a drive who has a large milage it ncould work out a lot cheaper

its definately something I want to try, my fear is damage to the engine though, I have yet to find a definitive "it will work in a 200tdi discovery" without modifications to fuel pumps etc
woody:

Range Rover Blues:
As i understand it the fuel duty payable makes it unrealistic unless you are getting your oil for virtualy free. Great is you own a chipshop :D
