anybody else find this slightly amusing?

[pimping]

the bit i am referring to is at the bottom of the page where obviously someone has e-mailed them a question.

in this particular instance the ebay seller is selling cheap veg oil for possible conversion to biodiesel and said diesel at their local supermarket costs £1.19 or there-abouts, and somebody e-mailed them saying 'well actually its £1.16 near me'.

childish i know but i was in stitches

Anyone know to what extent oil should be filtered before using it as fuel? Just interested...

Straight fresh clean Veg oil is around 10 microns....usually used as mixed at a max of 80% summer to 40% winter with diesel....some Straight veg users with twin tank systems use 1 micron for 100% running...
Matey is claiming 5 microns which is easy mix.....a pal of mine filters his from an Indian restaurant, it comes down to between 5 & 10 microns but the exhaust smell can be interesting.....
To my Mazda Bongo diesel for the MOT....matey said...you using Veg...on my yes answer, he said, waste of time doing the emissions then, yep it is that much cleaner....and you get used to the warm veg oil smell from the exhaust and the lack of coal smoke emitted from the exhaust on acceleration...

there's one for sale near me in wrexham i think. cabriolet and looks ok-ish for its age (1989).
