The noon news carried an article today about a man in California who was converting vintage Benzs into vegetable oil burning cars. [:0] The conversion cost about $700 but he stated that you could buy vegetable oil in bulk for about $2.00 to $2.50 a gallon. He also was selling some of the vintage Benzs and aother guy said he paid about $6,000 for one of them. <br /> <br />This is exactly what we need going on. People trying out new things and bring them to market. Of course only if they actually work. <br /> <br />Diesel itself gets about 30% greater milage than gas and diesel sales are rising. The benefit of vegetable oil over diesel is no pollution, or so they say. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
