[modeleng] Re: coocking oil.

Alan,
They actually sell that biodiesel stuff here,but is even more costly 
then real diesel,but
it is easy to make at home,
Some years ago, I ran a salvaged Turbo diesel engine from a BMW (that 
couldn't stop,when that wall ran across the road)
for some time to generate power, and it worked well.
If you clean it  well and siphon it the way it should be done, than the 
smell should be minimal....
