Straight Veggie Oil / Biodiesel Conversions 200

posted by  someone claiming to be JonB. on  Sat Nov 20 14:27 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have to jump in here, sorry. I like the idea of biodiesel. One good argument I've run across is that the crops used to produce the oil, as everyone knows, breath CO2. Therefore burning biodiesel has a lower net emmision of CO2s than is seen by measuring it at the exhaust pipe.

Wasn't the original diesel engine designed to run on veggie oil in the first place? I know I read that, I'll have to find the source.
