| Article Title :: Biodiesel, Fight The Diesel Prices |
| |
|
Using biodiesel in your diesel engine is one way to fight rising
diesel prices. The idea is that the higher the blend of
biodiesel that you use in your engine, the more money you will
save per gallon on fuel.
Biodiesel is the name for a variety of ester-based oxygenated
fuels made from soybean oil or other vegetable oils or animal
fats. The concept of using vegetable oil as a fuel dates back to
1895 when Dr. Rudolf Diesel developed the vegetable oil fueled
engine. Diesel demonstrated his engine at the World Exhibition

car, so sensible car owners do their best to keep the cost of
their car to a minimum by buying cheap car insurance, keeping
