Good day all, im after supply of veg oil for the landy. ideally local to hull/york. ideally fresh un-used stuff, but ill have to learn to filter it at some point!
its propbably best in bulk cos if you buy it from asda its still like 95p a liter which doesnt work out to much of a saving when diesel is 1.00 a liter here!

Can't help with the veggie I'm afraid but I need a driveway tarmacking could you do it? :lol:

Thought they had proved on mudclub etc that it wasn't worth the effort with the veg oil.
Wait 'til you try and start it in the winter :oops:

Gas for the win by the way :wink:

i ran it in winter on a 50/50 veg oil mix. started first time. even in the minus 10 we had on the wolds. smoked like a pikey mind, for teh first 20 seconds.
its got the conversion swich over tanks, 1 tank of diesel to start on, then switch over to main tank of svo.

had a few cars on lpg and i quite like it, though there is no where round here that sells it :(

spose i could go round the scallys in selby and ring theyre skin out...

Heavy oil.The fuel type says it all really.

A fuel endorsed by this chap sm101

Sometimes I pretend I have a diesel Jeep by taking a metal bucket filling it with spanners and shaking it about for 15 seconds whilst discharging a smoke bomb.
Then I drive really slowly until I come to a 1in 50 hill where I nearly stop and throw out 3 smoke bombs.Its a winner.

I'd be intrested in some vegetable petrol mind ya if you could get some sm40

VND would your skin do as tarmac,if so I think me and thee are off to the Dragon's den amigo.
