please, take a look at a website called www.beyondveg.com
I was once in your shoes, worried about every last thing that could possibly harm animals etc. I was a vegetarian/vegan/raw vegan/ and then a frutarian. I did this stuff for 6 years and I am not even 20! I now eat whatever i want, and feel so much better and look so much healthier than i used to. Please, I know it may be difficult, but try to see the downside to being a vegan.

To elaborate slightly on the dinosaur statements, oil is the result of decaying organic matter, either animal or vegetable. There is no way to make the distinction as to whether your engine oil is animal or vegetable based.
Don't let someone tell you to go synthetic, either. Synthetic oils are mixes of organic compounds designed to lubricate and can include petroleum derived components.

They are called fossil fuels for a reason, oil, gas, coal are all made from fossilized remains of ancient creatures and trees. So yes, engine oil contains animal fats, ooooh, as does the fuel, and the plastics you use around your house. Oh and the ceramic tiles, the list goes on.
Even if a food is listen as vegan its pretty much a guarantee that at least one of the ingredients was obtained from an animal.
edit : petroleum is an animal by-product, they are made from the remains of long dead animals compressed and converted over millions of years to petroleum oil.

These answers are actually showing why yahoo is total junk 🙂 Every dumbass trying to show how intelligent he is, but failed. It's like mail.ru answers, paRussia service.
To answer the question - engine oil is usually being tested on animals. You can read the backside label.

VEGAN: person who never EATS animal products: somebody who does not eat animal products for moral, social, or religious motives. See also ovolactovegetarian
I think you're ok, unless you are eating the oil or used oil after an oil change.

Yep....just like all be previous answers, besides think of all the poor little animals you're harming driving that thing. Oh, yeah, and there is animal fat in all those workers that built your car.

Yes.... all of it... Made from dead animals... sell the car and start walking... If you want to buy a bicycle also don't.. cause the paint and rubber and most of the thing on it have some kind of petroleum in it... and err... wood also get most of their nutrient out of dead animals.. so start starving... stop using the net cause most probably somewhere in the process pertoleum is used... yikes... another dead animal...

Abstract
This paper focuses on effective solution to improve the combustion of low quality animal fat by making stable emulsions with water. Animal fat emulsions are prepared by mixing the fat with water, surfactant and co-surfactant. Ethanol is chosen as the co-surfactant because of its dilution ability. SPAN 83 also called Sorbitan Sesquiolate is used as the surfactant because it well stabilizes and forms stable animal fat emulsions. Emulsions and micro-emulsions are prepared for different co-surfactant/surfactant (C/S) ratios. A number of formulations are made and the Sauter mean diameter of water droplets are estimated using electron microscope images. Results are presented in pseudo ternary diagrams. Influence of different parameters affecting the emulsion characteristics are studied experimentally. According to the stability, structure, viscosity, fat content and economical aspects, the optimum emulsion is found as the emulsion with 36.4% of ethanol, 3.6% of SPAN 83, 10% of water and 50% of animal fat by volume.
Keywords: Animal fat emulsion; Ethanol; Ternary diagram

probably but animal fat is used as a lubricant in the manufacturing of the steel parts of your car. You will have to give in a little.

You must be joking.
Regular non-synthetic motor oil has petroleum, which is technically an organic compound (the remains of plants and animals from millions of years ago). Full synthetic oil costs substantially more but has no organic components.
