I’m only speaking from what I have read. Apparently it is perfectly fine to run engines on biodiesel from using cooking oil or diesel from used motor oil as long as you have a good filtering process using a centrifuge. And I’m not saying that everyone will be able to save or make money this way, just that it’s something one could explore and at least limit the amount of tax they give to a corrupt government.


My understanding is that the vast majority of US subsidies in this area are for production rather than consumption subsidies aimed at reducing the price (only $44 billion out of $760 billion). The US is also on the lower end of fossil fuel subsidies compared to other countries at $28.16 per person in 2021, which seems considerably less than how much each person would have paid in fuel taxes that year.


Like I said, follow the instructions. That includes removing impurities if you’re working with used cooking oil. If it’s unused then that simplifies things.
Doing it at scale may not be economical because of taxes as well as the fact you either need to buy expensive vegetable oil or collect large amounts of used oil from disparate places. For personal use the taxes are avoided and you may be able to get sufficient used oil from a couple of restaurants or neighbors.


Only if you don’t follow the instructions

The “Cancel ChatGPT movement” doesn’t appear to be mentioned in the article, but other outlets say hashtags like #CancelChatGPT are trending on X.


Maybe next they’ll make you prove you’re over 18 to buy a computer at the store. Maybe put them behinds safety glass too since they’re so dangerous. Or put them on the top shelf where kids can’t reach.

Only necessary for filtering used oil, however
