[Vwdiesel] Is anyone here running F-100 biodiesel without modifying the car?

Howdy from Florida.

A co-worker of mine down here has made the investment 
necessary to make his own biodiesel...F-100 is what he
says he produces.

He gets the used oil from Wal-Mart, of all places.

He runs the fuel he makes in his '79 Mercedes.

(It costs him 75 cents per gallon, he figures.)

I might want to try this in my 1985 1.6L diesel Jetta
(non-turbo.)

Can you all give me some links for biodiesel info?

I don't want to pour the stuff into my beloved old car
without knowing what I might be doing to my old trusty
engine, but 75 cents a gallon sounds tempting.

I would not be wanting to learn the process myself
right now..just need to know if my car can run on it
without modification or damage.

He says I could just fill my tank with it.

Thanks!!
