Where can I go to buy cheap vegetable oil to make biodiesel?
Can I simply buy vegetable oil to make biodiesel? Is it possible to pump WVO and filter it to make biodiesel? Would it simply be cheaper to to buy it from a producer and what would be current average price for that right now?

If could ask around at restaurants and see if they can give you some, you could also just buy a lot of vegetable oil from the supermarket although after you’ve paid the fuel taxes it probably won’t be any cheaper than what you can get from the pump (yes, you do have to pay tax on biodiesel you make yourself, that means filling in extra forms, if you don’t you can be charged).
actually most restaurants will give it to you free, then filter it good before using it
there is no cheap oil, at Sams Club its $6/gallon. Used oil can be filtered. You will have to buy the used oil, filter it, mix it carefully, and the net effect is that you’ll have about $/gallon in it. Then with used oil, if you mess up cleaning it and mixing it, your fuel system may have to be dissembled and cleaned, cost $1000.
Bio diesel, even from a factory costs more than petroleum based. You can by a 5% to 20% mix at stations for a little more than regular diesel if you desire.
Yes, you can. The cheapest I have seen it was $6.65/gallon at Fred Meyer. BUT, using virgin oil for biodiesel is wasteful. It is better to use WVO (which is not only free, but recycled) I have been told that if you buy oil by the trainloaf you can pay $0.80/gallon, but I doubt that is true.
BTW, any oil you use has already been taxed AT LEAST once. The government doesn’t deserve your money and can never prove you didn’t pay cash at a station for your homemade bio. Don’t feed the pig.
