Hi Guys, I have just watched Quentin Wilson on the "Tonight" programme via the web. He*/ showed several ideas to help reduce fuel costs eg. using waste veg oil, pure rapeseed oil and what I presume is a chip to improve power so you use less throttle.
I made a point of checking the year of the vehicles he used in the demo and the astra in particular was a 54 plate. I'm assuming that this vehicle would have similar technology in its diesel engine as I have in my 2.0ltr 05 plate Cmax. So what are the thoughts about using straight veg oil or chipping my engine? Also anyone know how I can confirm for definate that it is possible to go down one of these routes?
Something needs to be done to reduce fuel costs as Quentin mentioned that it ccould soon be £2.00 a litre!!!!!!!!!!!!
