Easy Diesel Fuel

Is their any way to convert a regular non diesel engine car to biodiesel/vegetable oil or something similiar?

Brian asked:


I’m turning 16 and getting my permit next month and want to drive using biodiesel, veritable oil, or something similar. I’m driving a 1983 GMC S-15 Pickup with a regular non diesel engine. Is their any way for me to make this take biodiesel?

   Unless you’re going to swap out the entire engine and fuel system, then no.

   No there is not. Ask Oldsmobile, they tried to take a gas engine an make it diesel, what a disaster that was. The block did not have enough cooling, the crank couldn’t hold up to it. They were so bad, today they would have been buried in lawsuits.
   No, you cannot take a gas engine and convert it to diesel, to many differences to go into.
