Hi - Just read your thread with interest as I have exactly the same car - Golf IV estate 1.9 sdi estate from 2001. I was previously running an old W124 300d merc on veg oil - did 40k miles over 3 yrs but unfortunaltey just lost my main veg oil supply and needed to get a replacement pronto which would run very efficiently on regular Diesel.

Only had the golf a few days and am curious as to the rpm of your engine when at 60mph in 5th gear. I'm sure mine is near 3000 rpm which seems a bit high for such a speed.....

I am yet to work out my mpg figures, but will be soon.

Many thanks
Rik
