I have, and there are one or two places in Ottawa that sell biodiesel blend. I checked out going to 100% vegatable oil, but I don't think that would be too good on the warantee. Last I checked, Grease Car didn't recommend it for the new pump deuse engine. I coulda switched over my old 1982 Mercedes 300D, but the fuel efficiency was so crappy on those old diesels (10 L/100km)compared to the new ones (5-6 L/100km) that is wasn't worth keeping anymore. Well, that and the rust problem that was starting to develop . . .

You're in Ottawa? Me too! (well, close to it, but I study at Ottawa University).
