- How to use vegetable oil in a diesel engine. Why use waste vegetable oil (WVO) How to source free waste vegetable oil. How to filter it. The history of the diesel engine. How to convert a diesel engine with a two tank system. www.thePOOSH.org
I had an old Rover years, ago, I run it on WVO for a year, no problem, it had a bosch fuel pump so you could put anything in the tank, did 17,000 miles on it, and only put £10 of diesel in on a frosty morning. I changed the fuel filter every one thousand miles which was very simple to do and cost around £8 per time.
No performance issues apart from a lumpy start when it was frosty, averaged around 60-70mpg on the motorway, engine was quieter, quicker and it smelt nice lol.
I'm driving a 2001 Toyota Land Cruiser, 2 weeks on, straight vegetable oil, no conversion, no additional additive, just filter, and fill up, and it's driving great!!! No heating needed, no potassium hydroxide, no alcohol, no separation of biodiesel and glycerin.
How’s it going now? I have a l200 warrior I’m think I’m going to try
i want to do a 2000 toyotas Coaster 1HZ stock motor. Any tips on how to go about it.
The cloughing Always made the engine breakdown but combining those 2 systems with a flush! Genius!
Rudolf Diesel said "In a book titled Diesel Engines for Land and Marine Work,[18] Diesel said that "In 1900 a small Diesel engine was exhibited by the Otto company which, on the suggestion of the French Government, was run on arachide [peanut] oil, and operated so well that very few people were aware of the fact. The motor was built for ordinary oils, and without any modification was run on vegetable oil I have recently repeated these experiments on a large scale with full success and entire confirmation of the results formerly obtained."
My uncle hasn't paid for fuel in his boat for years now after his conversion
Excellent video I used to run my tdi 2004 vw polo with no mods with new veggie only when u could buy it in any supermarket for less that 24p a litre then almost over night it went up to 120p a litre :-(
Thanks for the diagram, whole thing is 240 so cant see, but found it on your website after typing vegetable oil into the search, great diagram many thanks for that. For others my advice re sourcing if you are happy to filter it is: best bet is probably to offer a small tip to the kitchen porter of some places to take the wast oil regularly: if u have space for it or some of it regularly: helps them, helps you, is the right thing to do unless u find it constantly thrown out for wast collection: which i think it often is in the big vatt containers.
Veg oil is the way to go!
You are more than welcome, please be sure to share it. Jim
Could you share a clearer image of the diagram? The one in the video is too blurry.

Good video. I agree with everything herein.
In primary school year 6 we used to watch the morning news. I saw report on a German take away shop owner running he's old Mercedes on chip oil. That was back in 1981. For many years no one believe me.
i use a hydrometer when mixing wmo or wvo so that i meet the specs for specific gravity/viscosity. i'm not a fan of guess work when it comes what i put into my fuel tank.
I'd really like to do this, but I'm a bit nervous for some reason. Need to look for updated information and see if an easier way has been developed. I'd have no problem with having to deal with very cold weather.
Is it possible to use diesel to fry my chips?
+Wendy Glass Yes and people like you should daily
hahaha!
Yes, it goes much quicker! And gives a crisp and smoky taste.
Maybe once.
@@Marc-or4dn 😂😂😂💀
Thanks for this video as it is pretty good! The diagram is a little unclear here however as there seems to be a blue plastic T connected to the 12v electric inline fuel filter which you sometimes call a glow plug. No mention in your audio. I assume the plastic T is in place of the 3 way solenoid valve. No explanation of the electrics is explained. Does the 12v Electric Inline Fuel Filter is this connected to the switch? How is the relay fuse and thermostat connected? The photo on the wrap around filter heater isn't clear! Any other diagrams?
Thank you!!!!
I have a 2002 Vito so very similar to yours. I want to convert to a veg two tank system. You said at start of the video you had to do something to your Vito’s ecu? Can I ask how and what you did to it please? Any help is greatly appreciated 😃
Gracias!
you fail to mention the engines that dont need converting. those that run a single tank system. like mine. 70,000 + miles and counting on WVO.
+gerald wade Which vehicles are the most reliable for SVO?
***** mercedes OM662LA engine with bosch pump.
I have a vauxhall/opel corsa 1.5d non turbo with bosch copy pump. Been running with 25% veg oil 75% diesel no probs for over 15k , you may need to change fuel filter twice as often due to the cleaning nature of the oil, Old mechanical diesels best for this--common rail is not wise. hope that helps :)
fit a flat plate heat exchanger. i only change a fuel filter at service now as it melts any fats. so far i`ve racked up over 200,000 miles on 100% waste veg oil
How many sets of injectors have you gone through?
Yeah, you could be spot on with that. The advice we have been given, which should have been maybe said previously, is stick to Bosch fuel pumps. Avoid brands such as Lucas.. That failing, do some calculations. How much veg oil will you use and at what financial saving will this bring you? Then, how much is a new fuel pump. Ive heard of companies who basically take the cost of a new fuel pump into consideration every year (30,000miles) and still some out on top with the cash saved by using wvo.
you dont need to convert mercedes w123 and w124, I think they are the best cars to drive on used vegetable oil.
It's thrue 😉👍
Great video, But I see you haven't posted anything in 5 years and your website is down. Are you still doing this sort of thing? Open question for anyone, Where can I find more information? Thanks.
How did you do that Fred? We are interested in off-grid generators which run using old engine oil. Got any good links or advice for this?
Most diesel engines will convert. Try the 70/30 mix first to see how it likes it.
What’s the mix? With ethanol?
Brilliant Work!!
does this system work on the old Ambassador engine? and how much does this conversion costs?
yes, because those are basic mechanical diesel engines
You guys have any projects in the US and is there a way to get a hold of you guys for technical help on the veg oil conversion. I'm going to convert a diesel RV to run on Veggie oil. Thanks.
What if dont do the conversion just strain it well and add additives? +its hot outside?
In warmer coutries no nerd for warming, just other filter...
I had a land-rover two tank system the bio tank was modified with heat pipes running through it . The bio fuel pipe was run through one of the hot water pipes to the secondrary fuel filter that had been modified to be heated . Never had any problems now thinking of doing something similar to my vw caddy
Did you do it? How has it worked out for you?
@@owendeliebs1894 yes I have . Its been a pig to setup. . Thing with bio is cleaning the glycerine out of the oil that's what messes up thing . A bit of a process. Also need to have a switch over to clear the system of bio with normal diesel. But it works. Lots of head scratches lol
@@pemj7360
Interesting. It would be nice if you made a video about your two tank system
Question. I'm not so much into the engineering of the two tank system.....
Is it OK to just always run on 30% veggie oil....
What if the engine have a Diesel-Particle-Filter (DPF) attached?
Any safe method of using a thermal type wrap (think electric blanket) to heat the entire fuel tank?
Hot oil added wirh NAOH solution help separating glycerine. And burn without caebon residue
Had a Nissan D21 one day ran out of diesel so got dome used veg oil from a restraint in the area to get home never had any filters so poured it in the tank as it was to my surprise it started and drove fine after that never put another drop of diesel in it I asked a mechanic one day why it worked and he said that has a bosh heated fuel pump. Did the same with a Skoda diesel van 1998 ran ok until i switched off That was the end of the van
where did you get all your parts from? the only part i can find is the fuel tank?
We used buy a pallet of chip oil from the super market and yjust tip ot in the tank we ran a pajero on it for 9 years with 320000 miles on the clock and no problems just smelled of chips
I've got a 2003 Volvo v70 2.3 euro 3 diesel can I put clean oil straight into my tank?
I'm going to convert a Baja Warrior I bought for $60 US, once I get it restored, to a dual tank system, if I can find a small go kart diesal engine that is water cooled, to replace the Honda GX-200 clone gasoline engine on it. Any ideas for a small (say 10-20 hp) lawn mower type bolt on diesal engine that could be used on a motorbike? Gasoline here is about $3.54 / USgallon, and new Canola Oil is $7.34 / USgallon. But you can buy the veg-oil with a government $200 month subsistance food card.
a woman i know put 100% waste veg oil into her 95 golf
This applys on common rail also ?
I have a car manufactured at 1996. Summer temperatures in my country are always above 30 Celsius. Do you believe I need a conversion?
I know these people that were running cold veggie oil and the bus stopped running. How would one go about fixing that?
Get a second tank, smaller, heated by coils🤷
Gaskets degrading has been our only negative experience so far. If you can change it yourself, then its only a few £s to solve.
Is there a way to convert diesel into car oil or any other oil?
I"m curious does using WVO cause more car maintenance ? what types of problems would need to be fixed using it
Can and has caused problems with lift pump failure due to lack of lubrication, fuel pipe failure due to incompatability, high pressure pump failure due to lack of lubrication and seal failure due to incompatability. Can also cause engine oil issues, injector fouling, dpf failure.
I need help. I have an acerage and i can produce my own sunflower oil. I would like to use a disel generator to power my home, would i be able to use fresh sunflower oil to run the generator?
I want to know the same thing lol
How much does it cost to do single tank conversion?
i wonder if a 2013 citroen jumper could be converted and roughly the price if someone knows?
If you heat the oil to over 100c can you get rid of all water in the oil?
You can use methanol to get rid of the water
will this work on crdi engines?
What is you have a DPF?
oil from Mcdonalds? good luck on that one!
Might bot be real oil...when i worked there we sprayed foam on the oil....
Will my van run on veg oil? 2004 Renault Kangoo 1.5 DCI

I can't see the diagram. Can you give me the link on it? :)))
Thanks
Our parts came from 2toc.co.uk Be sure to mention thePOOSH when you order for good vibes and great discounts!
The problem is now, modern cars don't have a fuel pumps which will work well with veg oil.
Do you know any type modern engine which is compatible?
At (5:21) - you say before converting, start of with a 70/30 vegetable oil/diesel mix. Don't you really mean a 30/70 vegetable oil/diesel mix? I think you've got this the wrong way round.
Bodragon yes, I think he misspoke
Can I convert my 2008 Honda civic ?
Better to convert it to biodiesel or mix it with diesel as WVO 25% Diesel or biodiesel 75%. Glycerin gums up your injectors
Why such bad quality of footage?????
I've converted my diesel engine to run on anything that burns, I've used filtered engine oil, heating oil, petrol, ethanol, and paraffin, I am current trying to use hydrogen atm, the only issue is water from the combustion process keeps leaking past the piston and condensesing in the engine block and contaminating the engine oil,
can I use new veggie oil from the shop and not used oil?
I use new veg oil in my banana engine
Store bought oil can be put in the tank directly, you do not need to filter it. But most store veggie oil is around the price of diesel, so it's not very profitable.
you can If your are running a one tank system... for example ' your standard factory set up ' providing it meets the criteria.... I'm assuming you have a banana engine?
Can I convert my 2008
HI guys i cant find the diagram online please i need somme help thanks
Beware 3:28 to 3:39. Although vegetable oil emits less NOX emission when used as fuel, using vegetable oil as fuel will not significantly decrease CO2 emissions from your car. Notice how in the video the narrator switched from a concrete measurement of CO2 for diesel to a nebulous figure that he called effective driving emissions for vegetable oil. Search consumer report biodiesel vs diesel vs vegetable oil for an informative article on the subject.
Mans co2 has no effect on the worlds temperature
So don't worry, do
It for the cost and less waste
Rob James Are you high?
well I go a 300sdl and it has a tank in the trunk and the man told it was for more diesel and i sad ok then i was driving and saw a 3 way switch in the car and went hm hm so thanks car came from over seas
you have a tank in the trunk of your car?
So your saying you create 0 emissions off vegetable oil? No way dude.
can i use old motor oil
jesus original no
+jesus original Yes....just filter it well...there are vids about it. In the early days of diesel engines a truck would run from London to Glasgow and change the oil there for fresh engine oil...the old stuff went in the tank to be used as fuel on the return leg....these were much simpler engines...hence the need to really filter old engine oil.
Don't listen to this guy, used engine oil is full of shit, it will wreck your engine
Yes old engine oil is full of shit!!! hence the need to filter it.....Also for philzambo, I will add that some engines may not like it? research is the key. I and many others have run old school diesels on mixes of old engine oil, brake fluid, cooking oil, Kerosene, paint thinners, literally if it will burn a diesel will eat it, new or old used filtered oil. Modern electronic and especially common rail diesels will not like strange fuels unless they have been really well filtered and then added to ordinary diesel, this will still cut your fuel bill by thousands of $ per year.
Stephen Cooper I've ran diesels on waste veg oil for years. Waste engine oil fouls injectors and causes chaos in diesel engines, even if you filter it down to a micron and run it through a centrifuge you won't get the carbon out of it.
Can diesel engine run on oily hand sanitizer? Such as hands sanitizer with aloe vera oil.
The first oïl used is hemp oil and it's good but not good for petrol industries. .. why use a cheap oil when they can pay more for a another item in have and they pay it more and i have more money. ..lobbyists are have bad things. ..sorry for my english i am french and i don't use translate .
Never say sorry for English
Its just a language .
Ultimate goal is communication
No need for fancy words or 100% accurate grammar
Can people convert new Diesel trucks in to vegetable oil diesel?????
Why does everyone whinge about CO2 when trees need CO2 to produce oxygen 🤦♂️😃
Rather time consuming process to do this filtering at home.
Is it true that I can convert my urine to v power?
1 monster per waking hour for 5 days and bam, you've done it.
Don't try this with a post 2000 year engine, or within 50 miles it will be wrecked!

The idea is I get $200 / month to buy food to survive, but no cash for gasoline to fetch the groceries 13 miles away. So if I could build a biodiesal bike, I could cut my fuel expense farther down, leaving my only last bill being my electric bill which sometimes I can also get government assistance to pay. I'd build an electric bike, but lithium batteries are insanely expensive so that is out of the question. I may skip the dual tank and just settle for a 30 diesal / 70 veg mix with no mods.
🙊👀💰
Too much bs. Get to it.
Our cars will grow fat
vegetable oil costs 10$ for around 5 L. diesel is around a dollar per L.
FREE waste (used) cooking oil
My truck takes aprox. 90L of gasoline and lasts around 2-3 weeks. If I buy a 5L vegetable oil container, it lasts me more than a month easily. You might have more waste oil if you run a very big restaurant or food product factory. How many people actually have access to that much quantity of waste oil. This method is not economically feasible until vegetable oil is specifically extracted for this purpose.
Rishi Kishore you can use animals fats oil as alternative, if in case veggies oil avail on the spot,
@@AnalystRK you must have been day dreaming when you watched the video.
There are thousands of places around you that will give you their waste vegetable oil - restaurants, cafes, take away food shops, pubs.. anywhere that uses deep fryers!! And they love to give it to you because they have to pay to get it disposed of.
Cooking oil emits CO2 just like a diesel engine. And you also emit CO2 no matter what you eat. This video is made by people that don't know what they're talking about 👎
