I very, very much doubt it!!!!

i wouldnt mind using biodiesel (same as normal diesel) as its readily available cheap at my uni, and it is 1/10000th as polluting as normal diesel and petrol, thus good for the environment. supposedly it only gives off a little CO2.

THATS WHY!!! so ner lol.

i was just curious anyways, considering my options.

cheers
