Default Veggie oil in diesel engines???

http://itotd.com/articles/509/vegeta...s-diesel-fuel/

also a top gear video


anyone here try running veg. oil in their diesel cars?? from what ive read the only downside is that the oil is alot thicker and needs to be heated up before its atomized for it to burn..

i watched a friend of mine pour in a few liters of vegetable oil into his half filled tank.. he drives a 1999 jetta TDI.. he poured in some additive (forgot which one) to make the oil thiner.. he says for the past 3 weeks hes been getting better mileage then ever before... anyone else try this ?? how about a medium duty truck?? :hmm:
