I'm not sure what the big issue is -- if somebody wants to burn veggie oil of whatever flavor and goobers their engine, its not like old Benz diesel engines, or whole cars for that matter, are in particularly short supply for some hundreds of dollars (or even less). Drop another one in, goober it too, or buy another car and goober it. Or buy a POS and run it til it dies. While that offends my techno proclivities to some extent, it really isn't a particularly exotic course to take -- most of these cars are way beyond their expected life anyway at 25 or 30 years, and many have been rode hard and put away wet. People drop thousands of dollars on their hobbies, if some dude wants to buy an old diesel and try to be a greenie, its just a hobby with some side benefits of maybe working out, or not. Either way, not much risk to the whole thing, financially anyway. And if it feeeeeeels good.....!!!

Steve, do you have any repeatable correctly done scientific proof that
any form of SVO will NOT damage an engine?  If so, please provide this
so I may repeat the research.

First, see my other response.

Second, stop your nonsense about "scientific research", it's a form of
wrapping oneself in the flag and proclaiming righteousness.

You know very well that no one on these lists has much scientific research
for the great majority of the knowledge and opinion that gets exchanged.

If you want to ask about such matters, go to  the appropriate place -- one
of the established** WVO/SVO forums, and ask away to your heart's content.
There are people on those forums who have 10-20 years in the field.

And, as a matter of fact, some of them DO have scientific work on the
properties of VO.

cheers

Mac
