Sorry I didnt get back to answer all your questions, here, sooner. I did state in the origanal post that I get this kind of MPGs on the diesel tank. The waste vegoil is like a suplement. I cant measure how much grease is pured into a 15 gallon heated tank. I drive 2,400 miles between diesel fillups. This is a greasecar. "My exhauste makes you want to eat fast food"

Which makes for a self-perpetuating fuel source... if you're making everyone want to eat fast food, you're giving Fast Food customers, meaning they have to use more oil, and you can get more oil that they've used, so you can drive more, affecting more people.

LOL.

Good luck on the sale, though. In the future, probably better to make sure it's obvious that you're dual fuel or whatever "the catch" is.

Cool

At least tell us how much it gets MPG. Telling us it gets 88mpg of Diesel when it only uses diesel for start ups is misleading. You might as well be saying how much windshield washer it takers or how much methanol you methanol injection system uses. When you're selling it, tell us how many MPG of fuel and WVO is a fuel you can measure. Even if it ran off excrement or something at least tell use the true MPG and if it takes something else like Diesel in addition add in how often you have to refill that too. Some WVO don't run off diesel at all. So if you tell us how much Diesel MPG your WVO car gets, there's something really wrong.

And it's not called MPGe when you're talking diesel . WVO is 1:1 with Diesel and SVO. They are almost exactly the same MPG.
