    Warren, yes well made bio will run in any engine, seals may ne an issue you need to find out, ask and research. Toyota seem to be fine.

    Yes bio made from either fresh or wate oil is best, and apart from material comptibility the only other issue is running a new motor in. May be best to run a few tanks of mineral or perhpas B50 to start with, or if your game give it a good hard drive after a while. I know nothing of the Triton sorry Peugeot and Toyota 80 series only. Maybe a new Prado D4d soon too.

    Hi,

    I was referred to you by Fitian. I'm very new to this whole bio diesel thing and have a few questions. I'm thinking of replacing my ute and as the price of fuel is getting ridiculous I'm considering a diesel and going the bio way.
    My first question is will the newer common rail engines run OK on homemade bio diesel or do I need to look for a 2nd hand conventional style diesel? I'm after a dual cab ute and the new Triton has the most room in the back seat (the kids won't stop growing) but that model only has the common rail engine. Do you know of anyone using bio in one of these?
    My 2nd question is from what I have read so far it seems that properly converted waste vegetable oil is the best for the engine, and requires the least amount of modification if any to the engine. Is this correct?

    Thanks for your time.

    Cheers,
    Warren.
