Damn that promo is tedious, gave up waiting for t h e n e x t w o r d t o crawl along
It's just bio diesel mate I guess. Nothing new just marketed badly Been on it for years , cheap as chips |

Basically he says buy cooking oil from him, for a £1 a litre you get the deisel free
I figured that out at a saving of just under 25% I only use around a tankfull [60 litres] a month, not worth making my own and a bit safer |

seems they want to lease you a machine for 24 hour (free as long as you buy their base products to feed it) which makes 500 ltr of fuel, what they do not say is how much lecy this thing will consume and where you are going to put 500 ltrs, whoops, Rick

You can buy ready made bio for a pound a litre anyway, all duty paid and use as much as you want. No mess.

Still smells like a chip shop but it's a direct replacement for diesel and so no mixing needed. It will work down to -15 degrees, and more with additives.
Works out much cheaper as you don't have to add diesel to your veggie |

It's a challenge mate. There seems to be so much under the counter stuff and bad press but no concise database of reputable makers. I know a good one in Bristol all above board and a good one in the woods , defo not
Others I've bought good stuff from have gone orff |

All diesel has a % of bio mixed in anyway these days by law, the only place I know of that does pure bio diesel near me is 30 miles away so just not worth it
