I wouldn't be able to use ethanol since my town doesn't have a gas station w/ one. If there is a site u know of that answers my question please let me know, cuz my own search on the matter has come up with nothing so far. And trading my car for a "green" one isn't an option. 1) can't afford it. 2) For some reason, the only vehicles I like, are Ford Mustangs. Thanks peeps.

OK cars & trucks that run on new or used vegetable oil have diesel engines in them. The oil has to be processed in some way usually before you can use it. You can buy cars that have been converted and oil/fuel stations. So unless you can install a diesel engine into you stang or until Ford decides to make some sort of flex fuel Mustang you can forget it.

You are essentially asking how to convert a gasoline car to diesel car. The cars you see on TV that run on waste veg oil are basically diesel cars. Even then the oil have to be processed so they don't clog up the fuel system. They work on different principle. I'm not trying to be rude but if you have to ask, then you probably can't.

Swapping engines is an advanced topic and swapping engines OUTSIDE of auto family is VERY advanced topic. Unless you are a very good mechanic or doing some research project, it is probably not worth your time and money.

purely diesels can run on gasoline produced from veggie oil (BIO - diesel). Any diesel automobiles can run on BIO diesel with none mods. the difficulty is the you could't get BIO-DIESEL at customary gasoline station. It must be made on your storage. So extremely it is no longer a sort of gasoline for the conventional motive force. good success...

I believe that vegetable oil cars must be diesel.
