Nahh lol its just a sensible diesel run around. Ive always said id have a diesel to run around in and a nice car in the garage for weekends etc, so I thought fuck it why not lol. May not get great MPG but the clue is in the title.... oil burner! Been running it on veg oil haha

Very cool Palmer!

I worked for a guy who converted vegetable oil into bio diesel, for a year or so... He also ran his trucks on veg oil. And dabbled in hydrogen. I learned quite a bit from that man. nonetheless, great story, keep em coming!

Looking forward to the updates!

Decided to rust proof the areas of the engine area that are prone to corrosion. Aka the battery area and washer bottle area and chassis legs (I think lol)
