| Re: Shed Oil Refinery Yet another good find Dolly  When this thing really takes off...you watch the Government bring in Legislation under the guise of "Safety" to stop you making it at home!  And don't be suprised if someone like B.P. "Virgin" or Asda start offering a free oil recycle service to all the chip shops to corner the market! good vid though  |

| Re: Shed Oil Refinery Sorry - should've quoted a few sources ! Here are a couple of 'older' news: BBC News | ENGLAND | Driver fills up with chip fat Biomotors.co.uk - Vegetable Oil Driving And here's upto date: Financial Advice UK - Household bills News - The Secret Chip Fat Fuel Phenomenon Interestingly 'Autotrader' in an article this January incorrectly stated that Sunflower Oil was exempt from fuel tax. - lot's of confusion, as you can see by the different tax levels quoted. |
