Haha, LOL. A friend of mine used to get used veggie oil from his local fish & chips. He filtered out the pieces chips and stuff that was in the oil using a blanket and ran his car on it for a year. And he to had the temperature problem of solidifying. Also had quite a particular smell...

Basically all diesels, including modern common rails, can run on veggie oil. The TDI's from VW however cannot. They use a different injection system which does not cope with with the veggie oil very well. In Germany you can buy Bio-diesel which is also just a veggie oil.

cheers, ben
