Robert Krueger was so happy with his first Greasecar that he decided to make his second vehicel a converted diesel as well. Here the Kreuger family is pictured with their Vanagon. The other is a VW Rabbit pickup.


Matt Davis, another customer from VT, pictured here happily displaying his 98 Jetta TDI at the 2003 VT Solarfest.


Hey Justin,

I am having a blast running on Vegetable oil. A friend lately remarked that he was jealous that more girls wanted to see my car than his, a 40K BMW M coupe. It is a sexy little machine, and so smart. By the time I back out of my parking space I can switch to grease...as long as it still isnt solid in the tank or anything. I am averaging around 240 miles per gallon of diesel, mainly because of the very short start up time.

I really like the black tank, things worked out really well.

I am looking foward to seeing you at greasefest.

Peace,
Scott

Sandra Kirkpatrick and Christopher King converted their 1988 Ford E-350 (7.3 liter IDI) EARTHBUS in September 2003, have driven over 6,000 veggie miles and have been living in it ever since! They've perfected their oil collection routine filling a custom made 45 gallon tank using a 1/3hp gear-lube oil pump with 50 mesh and 80 mesh strainers in combination with a 20 micron spin-on and a 5-15 micron GE water filter attached. They pull up to the source and can turn the blackest oil to a beautiful golden color.


Doug Sprouse drove his 83 Mercedes 300TD wagon all the wat from Ohio to be converted at the 2003 VT Alternative Energy Festival. The Mercedes wagon does not have a recessed tire well so a 32x10x11 Greasecar box tank was fitted in the rear cargo area.


Peter has been driving on Grease since 2001. He has made numerous road trips in his van and is leaving the east coast headed for Colorado. Peter's van is equipped with 45 gallons of fuel capacity and a Greasecar pumping/filtering rig for quick fill ups and long range drives.


Mark now has a '98 TDI. He has logged over 62,000 trouble free miles since conversion.
