Vegetable oil Cars Cost Comparison

All cost are shown in Australian Dollars

When these cost savings are transferred to your average weekly transport expenses, the differences quickly add
up.  Consider the difference in fuel costs for my vehicles as follows:

Without Conversion:

60 litres per week of diesel fuel @ $1.65pl

Total = $99.00 per week or
$5148.00 Annually        

Compared to:

Vegiecars Quick Conversion:

Cool Climates:
60 litres per week of Diesel & Chip Oil Blend @ $0.79pl = $47.70per week or
$2480.00 Annually - Saving  52%  $2668

Warm Climates:
60 litres per week of 100% Chip Oil @ $0.30pl = $18.00 per week or
$936.00 Annually - Saving  82%  $4212

Vegiecars Diesel Purge Dual Tank Conversion:

55 litres per week of Chip Oil @ $0.30 pl = $16.50 +

5 litres per week of diesel fuel @ $1.65pl = $8.25
Total = 24.75 per week or
$1287.00 Annually - Saving  75%  $3861

If considering a conversion, do this break even analysis:

U = Fuel Used - litres per km

S = Fuel Cost Savings - $ per L of diesel minus $ per litre of Chip Oil
C = Cost of Conversion
R = Risk - cost of replacement of a major component such as an injector pump or alternator.

Calculate:
U x S = Savings per kilometre
C ÷ (U x S) = Conversion Break Even
(The number of kilometres your car will have to run on Chip Oil until it will have payed for the conversion)
R ÷ (U x S) = Risk Break Even
(The number of kilometres your car will have to run on Chip Oil until it will have payed for possible component
failure)

Example:
My cars consumption is only 8km to the litre = 1litre / 8km
U = 0.125 litre per 1 kilometre
S = $0.86 diesel @ $1.65pl minus Chip Oil Blend @ $0.79cpl
C = $495 (Vegiecars Quick Conversion)
R = $450 (second hand alternator or injector pump replacement)

U x S = $0.10c Savings per km

C ÷ (U x S ) = $495 ÷ $0.10 = 4950kms to Conversion Break Even
R ÷ (U x S) = $450 ÷ $0.10 = 4500kms Risk Break Even
Combined Break Even = 9450km

So in less than 10,000 km I’ve not only paid for my conversion but the risk of a major component having to be
replaced due to the increased pressures on old worn engine components.

DVD S.V.O. Seminar 2006

Lately there's been a lot of talk about the effects of Global warming due to our love of gas guzzling vehicles and our
dependency on foreign oil. Scientists and entrepreneurs around the world are busy developing what they hope will be
our answer to cleaner burning vehicles. What many people don't realize is that this technology already exists and it's
been around for quite some time now.

This DVD was Shot during a seminar on Straight Vegetable Oil at Ecoversity in Santa Fe, New Mexico and is packed with
2.5 hours of valuable information. Listen along while many of the most frequently asked questions about this technology
are discussed and answered.

These questions and more are answered on this DVD:

• The History of Straight Vegetable Oil
• Different Alternative Fuels
• Straight Vegetable vs. Biodiesel
• Straight Vegetable Oil Facts and Fiction
• Diesel Engines vs. Gasoline Engines
• How a Straight Vegetable Oil System Works
• The Importance of a Vehicles Air Filter
• Increase Power and Economy/Computer Mods
• Oil Gathering 101
• Filtering on the Fly with the One Shot
• Using Filter Bags
• What to do with leftover Nasty Oil
• Diesels Available in the USA

DVD GREASY RIDER

Picture a cross-country road trip powered by vegetable oil in a 1981 Mercedes-Benz. Greasy Rider follows the two
filmmakers, Joey Carey and JJ Beck, as they meet with fellow Greasecar drivers, friends, and critics. Traveling as far south
as New Orleans and as far north as Seattle, the car is fueled by used cooking grease collected at restaurants along the
way.

Interviews include Morgan Freeman who is opening up a Biodiesel plant in Mississippi. Political analyst Noam Chomsky,
“You're supposed to believe we would have liberated Iraq even if its main product was pickles,” appears along side Yoko
Ono, “This whole world is now ruled by corporations and their greed,” and Tommy Chong, “You guys figured it out. You
got your little bio-car, and there you go.” Additional interviews include the founders of the four major vegetable oil
conversion kit companies, Greasecar, Greasel, Neoteric, and Frybrid, as they discuss the reality of vegetable oil as a fuel.

The heat is felt in this political documentary as America's energy consumption continues to grow. With gas prices on the
rise and the reality of global warming setting in, Greasy Rider points to vegetable oil as one part of the solution to our
energy problems.

The Film:   FUEL

http://thefuelfilm.com
FUEL is an insightful portrait of America’s addiction to oil and an uplifting testament to the immediacy of new energy
solutions. Director, Josh Tickell, a young activist, shuttles us on a whirlwind journey to track the rising domination of the
petrochemical industry — from Rockefeller’s strategy to halt Ford’s first ethanol cars to Vice President Cheney's
petrochemical company sponsored energy legislation — and reveals a gamut of available solutions to "repower
America" — from vertical farms that occupy skyscrapers to algae facilities that turn wastewater into fuel.

Tickell and a surprising array of environmentalists, policy makers, and entertainment notables take us through America’s
complicated, often ignominious energy past and illuminate a hopeful, achievable future, where decentralized,
sustainable living is not only possible, it’s imperative.
