What's the MPG like? Can I use chip fat and veggie oil? What about LPG?

Asda have plenty of 'Crisp and dry' (Rapeseed oil) on the shelf here in Walsall @ £2 for two litres ..

I only use it for cooking as I have a V6..!!

Go on Mike, you could be the first to try mixing veg oil with petrol and LPG, after all LPG injection is now used in some diesel engines :). I've been experimenting with mixing 2 stroke oil in with diesel on my Volvo and it seems to run a little smoother and quieter.

Some people reckon that the (expensive) Flash lube variants of upper cylinder lubricant, is simply synthetic 2T oil thinned down with diesel ..!!
