Yesterday Andy (Seneca’s brother) finished installing his greasecar kit. He has a 1975 Mercedes Benz that now runs on Veggie Oil! We took it out for a country drive yesterday to test it out, and it runs great! Andy made us all smell the exhaust, and yes, it smells like french fries (a vast improvement over diesel exhaust). The engine actually ran a bit quieter than it did before as well. So Andy, Seneca, Juneau, and I piled in to the Grease-Benz and headed for some country roads.

Now that Andy’s running on grease, we’re even more motivated to get the VW converted. Seneca finished up some other upgrades (new hemp/organic cotton pop-top canvas, brighter headlights, a water pump for the sink, and new injectors for the engine), and the grease conversion is up next. Stay tuned! :)
