How Biodiesel is made in your garage

I was just looking around today for some interesting techy movies, and I found Biodiesel Man on YouTube, presented by Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs, this is really worth the eight minutes you will spend watching, especially if you are a new to how biodiesel is made in your own garage.

Bruce Barber is Biodiesel Man and rides a 1982 (diesel engine) Datsun King Cab that gets 40 miles to the gallon (0.55U$ per gal.) and now runs off of Biodiesel that he makes in his own garage, the only modification to his engine was changing the fuel lines from rubber to synthetics!

Biodiesel Man uses processed vegetable oil that comes from restaurants such as Diegos, giving his exhaust the smell of a kitchen and the environment the break it deserves

Step by step, in eight short minutes, this enjoyable video with Biodiesel Man is educational and fun, taking you quickly through how biodiesel is made in your own garage.
