A lot of people do throw veg oil in, although technically you need to have an engine conversion done, extra tanks, pre-heaters etc. The other down downside is that as veg oil is considered as a fuel alternative, not a fuel as EN14214 spec biodiesel is, it means you have to pay a duty rate of...

Andysvan, Yep, I know Bio Uk Fuels well, Alan is a great bloke and very helpful.

Boxer, Sorry had a look on my list and can't find anything at the moment in those postcodes, so I'm afraid it's still the trips to Birkenhead at the moment. If I hear of anything though I will let you know.

timberjock Yeh, we find there aren't many biodiesel producers in Scotland, a couple of big big ones but not many smaller ones. You guys are really keen to go green too, I see articles everywhere relating to Scotland. We are working with several companies/organisations up there to try and help...

Yep, you're right. Veg oil duty rate is 48.35 pence per litre, as it classed as a fuel replacement. Biodiesel must eet EN14214 specification in order to attract the 28.35 ppl duty, otherwise it is also 48.35ppl. Not trying to sell you any Mondo :p , trying to get it into haulage companies...

Don't be mean mondo!! :p

We are trying to get local companies/4x4 dealerships to stock and supply biodiesel and I was after help/feedback from you all. I have spoken to one large 4x4 manufacturer and they are interested in fitting fuelling points at all of their dealerships, supplying biodiesel to their customers...

What about looking at biodiesel rather than red diesel or veg oil? It is illegal to remove the dye in red, although I did hear it was possible in quite a simple way, don't know if it actually worked though! Running on veg oil needs a conversion, adding a seperate tank, pre-heaters etc...

It depends on whether you want to run veg oil or biodiesel, which are 2 different things. Veg oil generally needs a conversion, fitting a seperate tank, pre heaters, glow plugs etc. Biodiesel is a drop in replacement for your mineral diesel. If you are going for biodiesel, the fuel...
