[AT] Biodiesel question

[Dean VP]

Ed:

The bad part about running a diesel engine on bio-diesel is you will think
you are driving by a McDonalds restaurant all the time.

A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not
strong enough.--John Christian Bovee

Excellent.  I'm going to try my hand at this.  On one page I looked up, 
it looks like I can make the entire setup for less than 10.00, 
especially since I have all of the parts lying around anyway.  Now for a 
source of pure methanol, but, I believe this is the same as the fuel 
that drag cars run on, with a drag strip only 2 miles from the house, I 
venture a guess that I'll find some there.  And, with "Chun King Cat" 
Chinese Restaurant in town, I bet I'll find my soy cooking oil.
