What is the Best Way to...

dispose of used vegetable oil?

Burn it in your gas tank! If you drive a diesel, free fuel is right around the corner.

Are you tired of stuffing the kids, groceries, school bags, soccer shoes, dogs and schoolmates into the back of a fuel efficient shoe box on wheels? If you need the family space of an SUV, but just can't bring yourself to leave that size of eco-footprint, we have the answer for you: Go Greasecar!

You can get a big SUV that uses diesel and convert that gas guzzler into a leftover vegetable oil burning beast. Greasecar Vegetable Fuel Systems is designed for the mechanically challenged to easily convert diesel motors into "veggie-oil" burning engines. There are simple attachments and guidelines to follow like filtering the bits and pieces out of the oil.

Waste vegetable oil is what comes out the fryer, from a fast food joint for example, when it is time to change the oil. This stuff also happens to be a carbon neutral fuel - meaning there is NO new carbon dioxide being emitted into our atmosphere. Although, there are some fossil fuels used to produce vegetable oil in the first place - recycled vegetable oil is fueling everything from city buses to Hummers these days.

Do you remember this phrase, "One man's trash is another's treasure"? Well, all restaurants have to pay for the disposal of old frying oil, whether they fried chicken, French fries, egg rolls, etc. Now that you know, you can take your fuel efficiency to the next level, and get your grease on by turning fast food waste into free fuel for your diesel-fueled vehicle.
