But you forgot to tell us you had to mix the oil with alcohol
50/50 to make your biofuel combustible making it cost over three times
what gasoline sells for.

Used to have a store on Maple just east of Pontiac Trail. Nobody would buy
anything, and then they were surprised when we closed. Thank God we got
someone to sublease the building.

Buddy are you a shill for the gas companies or something?

Your 'sure' sound like it. All you have done on this board is BS about
off topic crap and push stinky fuel.

Do you even own a Jeep?

No, I didnt. Bill, you have a lot of knowlege, but need to resist making
assumptions.
I added the 10 gallons of peanut oil to the 12 gallons of diesel already in
my tank, (25 gal cap) and noticed no difference in performance on these
mountain grades.
I could have run it straight in this hot weather with no blending.
