If you use well filtered and dewatered oil, and make sure you install a system that'll get the oil to proper temperature your Mercedes will serve you long and...
Welcome Jon! I have put 12,000 veggie miles on my 84 300D last year. The car still starts right up in the morning and I have had no trouble what so ever ...

Hi Jill, I would go with the Mercedes 5 cyl. I have a 1983 Mercedes 300 SD and I have been told that these cars, when properly maintained are almost bullet...
Does anyone have a sample of a veggie oil contract? I'm really wanting to start a co-op in my area to grab up a big supply before more oil upstart companies...

Thanks Mike for describing your system. I'm looking to do something similar, except heated, and already have the place set aside in the garage for the...
Hi all, My name is Stan and I live in Eastern CT. The lowest winter lows are about 0 degrees F. or a little less for a few days to a week in Feb. I am just...
Hi Stan, I really wanted a pickup but couldnot scare up the funds and didn't have enough need to justify it but I did a lot of planning. If I were you and...
Hi, Stan. I'm kind of in the middle of a conversion myself and am glad to share what I've learned. I'm not a DIYer so have been dealing with mechanics. From...
... I sure don't know how you figured that out. The systems I looked at (the comparison chart on Frybrid.com) all pretty much just heat the oil near the tank...
RVeggie conversion After converting the van and pickup, this was the big job! It is now finished and we start the 3,600 mile journey today. In theory it...

I used a greasecar kit on my 83' 300D. It's not bad, but I would definitely do more research if I were to do it again and see what exactly I was getting. I'd...
I too am cold filtering and settling. From the "dumpster" or wherever the oil comes from I'll filter it through a woman's stocking. This should pickup anything...
It is interesting to hear you name the middle layer as an oil/water emulsified mess, - now I know this is a bit controversial but _all_ and the _only_ wvo I...
KJ, Thanks for the observation! I'm sure was wrong to call it "an oil/water emulsified mess" if you are saying that the two distinct layers merge and just look...
Looks like a good setup to me. Nice and basic. The only thing I do different is I let my oil sit in the cubees until I have enough time/feedstock to run a...
I have a '85 MB 300D w/ a GreaseCar kit installed. I think it's a good kit. Like Levi, if I was going to do another conv, I'd look into putting a system...
Hi Mac, Congealed fats/oil is my take too, and I suppose there is a reason why the two separate, density i guess. I have no idea what the difference between...
