WVO Greasecar waste vegetable oil heating issues

It's cold here in the northeast. Hasn't risen above 20 degrees in the last few days. My 2002 VW Jetta Greasecar has been having issues getting the waste vegetable fryer oil hot enough to drive on it. I can get the veggie oil temp up to about 90 degrees, but it just sits there.

So, I insulated the main oil lines to try to keep some of the heat from escaping, but that hasn't helped much. After some research on the frybrid and greasecar forums, I've decided to add a vegtherm electric inline heater to give the veggie oil a shot of heat just before it gets to the injection pump and the engine. It's pretty pricey at $150 though.

Hopefully it'll help. Check www.fillup4free.com for more news and pictures about greasecars and waste vegetable oil heating issues.

Stop Wasting Your Money! Drive for FREE on waste vegetable oil (WVO - Greasecar) from your local restaurant!

How much did you spend on your last tank of gas?

If you are like most people in the US, then you probably are spending between $30 to $40 per tank of gas these days. Now most of us fill up at least once a week, and if you do the math, that can add up to over $1,000 per year on just gas!

What if there was a way that you could run on free fuel?

What if there was a way that you could reduce the effects of global warming at the same time by using an alternative fuel, like biodiesel--but better and way, way cheaper...(how much cheaper can you get than FREE!)...

Would you be interested?

Few people know that there is a readily available alternative fuel to gasoline that is available right now for FREE all over the country and is better than biodiesel.

Sound too good to be true? Well, it isn't!

My name is Kristopher Setchfield, and I have started this blog to share this amazing information with the world. Since implementing it, I have driven thousands of miles FOR FREE. That's right! No tricks. No gimmicks. Just plain FREE!

Now I was originally very skeptical that this technology could actually work, so I read everything I could get my hands on. After years of research I finally took the plunge and converted my car to run on this free alternative fuel, and now--thousands of FREE miles later--I can unabashedly state that if you are paying for gasoline at the pump, then you are THROWING YOUR MONEY OUT THE WINDOW!

You don't have to pay $2.00 or more per gallon to drive a car!

With this incredible technology, you can literally drive on a waste product that other people are throwing away!

My friends tell me that this all sounds like "Back to the Future," and I admit that it is kind of similar, but let me ask you a question.

If you could fill up for free and help the environment at the same time, would you?

Here's the deal.

Back in the early 1900's a man by the name of Rudolph Diesel invented an engine that could run on any type of oil or grease. Petroleum oil, peanut oil, canola oil, you name it--his engine could run on it. Not only was his engine versatile, but many of his original prototypes are still in operation today, almost a hundred years later!

This engine was named the Diesel engine after its inventor, and shortly after its premier the petroleum oil industry developed a type of fuel specifically for the engine and named it Diesel fuel. An environmentally-friendly version that was made from plant based oils rather than petroleum also became available called BioDiesel.

The world then promptly forgot that the Diesel engine could run on vegetable oils, since Diesel fuel was so cheap and easy to get at the pump.

But today, with the soaring prices of Gasoline, Diesel, Biodiesel, Kerosene, and home heating fuel, this alternative fuel technology has been rediscovered!

It is my mission to share the details of this technology with anyone who will listen. It is possible to run any Diesel engine with straight vegetable oil (also known as SVO) if a conversion kit is installed to make it a "GreaseCar." Vegetable oil or fryer grease is often free and it is readily available since many businesses and farmers throw it away as a waste product!

Isn't that weird?

I mean, can you imagine people throwing away gasoline? Can you imagine anyone throwing away home heating oil or kerosene?

It's absolutely ludicrous!

Every year in the US, the fast food industry alone throws away over six billion gallons of waste vegetable oil (also known as WVO)!

If you had a Diesel engine, you could use some of that as FREE FUEL!

Just imagine not having to pay for fuel again...you and your greasecar could take those long trips that you have been putting off because gas costs too much these days...

You could take the money you'd save on gas and use it to buy those sweet tires or that awesome stereo you've been wanting...

AND, at the same time you would actually be recycling! You see, using waste vegetable oil or grease as an alternative fuel is actually recycling a waste product. Instead of the waste oil going into a landfill you could be using it in a greasecar to commute to work. Instead of all of that oil from the local fast food restaurant going down the drain, you could use it to drive to the beach in your greasecar!

Since I converted my cars to run on straight vegetable oil with a GreaseCar kit, I have driven literally thousands of miles without having to buy gas at a gas station. My friends are all amazed that it actually works, and they are all begging me to help them convert their cars!

There just aren't enough hours in the day for me to help them all personally, so I am building this website so that I can share what I know with as many people as will listen.

In the coming months I will be adding the following information to this blog:
  • Basic summary of vegetable oil alternative fuel technology
  • Overview of the requirements to implement it
  • History of the technology
  • Difference between BioDiesel and Straight vegetable oil (SVO) or Waste vegetable oil (WVO)
  • Detailed instructions on how to convert your car
  • Links to related print and internet resources
  • Step by step photos of my GreaseCars' conversions
  • Tips and tricks to help the do-it-yourselfer
  • Warnings and expert advice to keep you from making costly mistakes
  • Much more!
