With fuel prices going up do you think that biodiesel can make it right now? Will higher feedstock prices outweigh the increased cost of biodiesel?

From what I understand you don’t need to change anything with your veichle when running biodiesel, but you need to make some conversions for vegtable oil. However, from what I’ve read it’s not that much less expensive to make your own biodiesel as it is to just buy regular diesel fuel. So what should I go with? I would love to really talk to someone who has done this kind of thing on their own and has hands on experience. Thanks!

john b asked:
If I were to set up a biodiesel refining unit I would want fresh vegtable oil and I do not want to collect if from resturants. I want to buy at least 500 gallons at a shot to make it worthwhile. I want it domestically produced in the United States. Price and availability are an issue.
