Im looking to find a good place to buy new veg oil to run in my dodge. I want to mix with diesel. Im a strong believer in using wmo but not in my cominrail. I have bought me a 4btcummins to put in my 72f350. I plan on using a very heavy mix of wmo. When I look up veg oil on internet it takes me to a lot of bs sites with no help.

Depending on Your area it is cheaper to get wvo and filter it then burn it or make bioD.

I can still make it for about $1.50 a gal. But the WVO is getting hard to come by. Valley proteins started paying them for the oil instead of charging and now a bidding war has begun.

As I've mentioned before Ohio and Texas have WVO commodities markets. Why you ask? Supposedly they add 3 gallons per head per day at the feed lots. Gotta love that USDA Beef!

It's supposedly trading for about $2.50/gallon now.

Well @ $4 a gal at a 1.50 to produce that would be about $2.50 a gal. No way tho!! The oil being free was the big part of it.
