i'd be willing to bet that i can count all the bio pumps in the entire state on one hand. and they are all probably pushing mid to upper 4's.

Go on the internet under search to how to make biodiesel or journey forever .Is a great one tons of reading, thats what I did. And it works great after you get the hang of it. vegetable oil sodium hydroxide and methanol is all you need to get the tri and diglcerides out of the oil and then a good washing.Yes thats to get the soap out and all the impurities out of the oil also. prefer a cone tank too wash with.
