Fuchs in Germany makes a vegetable oil based engine lubricating oil that 
they call Plantomot (has good biodegradable properties).

In fact Elsbett specifies that this oil be used in engines that have been 
converted to run on SVO using their kits, presumably because some vegetable oil 
fuel inevitably mixes with the lubricating oil and this Plantomot oil is less 
prone to polymerization (thickening) of the lubricating oil when this happens.

  Subject: [biofuel] Bio-motor oil?


  Is it possible to make motor oil out of WVO?  I read in another thread about 
using biodiesel in gas engines as a fuel additive, anyone know anything about 
maybe using it as an oil additive?  Good idea, bad idea?
