[Vwdiesel] Virtues of driving a diesel

[Tony Boucher]

This afternoon I was driving downtown when I noticed that I was on empty. I 
drove around for a while looking for a Gas statoin but couldn't find one. So 
I did what any good VW diesel owner should do. I found a grocery store went 
in and bought 6 litres of virgin Canola oil. Poured it into my 86 Golf in 
the parking lot. (Go a few strange stares) And then drove home. 75km. 
smiling ear to ear. :-)

P.S> French fry WVO does smell better than thr fresh stuff though. :-)

character, give him power.
