Saw that project on something like the Discovery Channel. Couple of young
guys (I think they may have been high schoolers or junior college students)
converted diesel engines to run on cooking oils they'd scrounge from burger
places and then filter repeatedly before dumping into the fuel (or is it
gruel?) tank. If I remember correctly, they burned up several engines
before getting a system that would take them across the country. Great
bunch of kids!!
