went to see diesal veg company to day about conversion 1250.00 to do my 3.0 trooper
1200.00 for van carnt decide if it will pay might just mix 50/50 in the van trooper only really gets used weekends i was impressed with the set up though. mates going to do his hilux they do a diy kit half the price bit like rocket science to me though

Veg oil still around 90p a litre when bought in 15Ltr drums at Makro - thats still 40p a litre cheaper!

Its still about £17.50 for a 20L drum at makro and Bookers Smile

so mixed 50/50 works out about 90p a gallon cheaper.
