I saw a story on the history channel about George Washinton Carver tonight. Biodiesel was something he worked on many years ago with Henry Ford. Even then, Ford and Carver recognized that petroleum fuels were not fine and a substitute needed to be found. I found it interesting that Soy or Peanut OiL with 10% Alcohol and boiled, would remove the glycerin(10 %) and leave biodesel (90%). This biodesel runs extremely clean.

Interesting stuff!!
