to the mods... veggie oil

Post by weety »

would it be possible to have either a seperate subsection of the forum for veggy users or a posted sticky about the do's and dont's.... particularly the different effects veggy with have on bosch pumps, lucas pumps and HDI's?

lots more people are trying veggy and it would help give them a good steer on the risks

I think this would be a very good idea although if this does happen, we'd need a Renault specialist to advise on running various DERV Renaults on veg although being French I guess they too use either Bosch or RotoDiesel (Lucas) pumps and the general principles we know so well for PSA vehicles apply equally.

I'd say create the sub-forum and move all veggy-specific posts into it but with current performance issues I suspect both tasks would be very difficult to achieve at the moment.
