Newbie needs info

I have a few questions about running some type of used fryer oil in my truck. I have a 2B diesel and will be putting a turbo on it soon.

q1) Can someone give me a quick overview of how to go about using veg in my truck?
q2) What performance/efficiency can I expect from using veg?
q3) what issues have come up - maintenence issues- from using veg?
q4) anything else I should know about when considering this change - cost, time, etc would be great!

I hope this could become a great sticky as a Newbie faq to this section if there is enough information.

Thanks!

great idea on the sticky! i'm on the same boat. check out Greasecar Vegetable Fuel Systems it's got faq's and i also spoke to a very knowledgeable guy.

i'm also slowly reading through the posts on this thread, tonnes of info.

sounds like it's a win win situation! cheap if not free WVO, a moderate modification on truck, and just learning how to use the system.

g'luck on the process!
