How To Make Your Own Biodiesel - Xtreme 4x4 S4, E13

The thought of paying over $4.00 for diesel fuel has Ian and Jessi seeking a "green" alternative! The solution? We brew our own Biodiesel right in the Xtreme shop, showing viewers how they can save money, and do their part to help the environment at the same time. We'll take you through the entire process step by step. And in our event of the week, we go to one of the most xtreme events ever in Johnson Valley, California and their 50 mile rock / desert race known as "King of the Hammers".

First time here, guys, and I have to tell you that I was not ready for just how damn EXTREME that was going to be! 😮

My friend Tyler and I visit hospitals and “acquire” the fat to make soap. We’re in a club, but we’re not supposed to talk about it. 😉

My diesel Audi gets 42 hwy mpg, and puts down 430 ft/lb from the factory. Sadly no longer sold in US.

Let's make some MOONSHINE biodiesel 😁

5:37 - You wish! No restaurant has given away their waste oil for free for at least a decade. They know how to make money from junk, and you can dream about free used oil unless a friend or relative has a restaurant. If you use your concoction as it is - as you said - be prepared for a fuel filter exchange with every full tank from the greyish-white gunk at 6:47 or for even worse consequences.

Can't seem to find the website for this, can anyone help me out?

Where could someone buy this bio diesel kit from?

They make something so simple look like rocket science...

[recnepsgnitnarb]

Yeah let's use heating elements in a plastic tank. Far easier to make biodiesel in a water heater tank. Safer too. I've been making biodiesel using hot water heater tanks since 2005.

My 2012 F350 says not to run more than 20% biodiesel. Anyone know why?

[buddyphillips]

Not really cost effective when it costs $8, 000.... 😂

I would like to pay your 4$ a gallon, but I live in Pennsylvania and pay the second or third highest fuel taxes in the nation.

Wanna bet by this time next year the price of diesel is half of what it is now?

[BurningGhosts]

You forget it has to be filtered first

[mikalegault]

An even greener option would be Hydro-diesel since it contains 20% water.

[FishinAddict]

A Buck twenty per gallon plus $8000 for the kit. hmmmm No wonder they are $5/gallon at the gas station.

yea this is a great idea an all but most Restaurants Already has some one taking their oil some are even paying for the used oil Already Because this has Ben Going on for about a Decade At Least so Its Not any thing New ! I Tried To Get Oil about ten Years or so ago from some Local Restaurants & They Had People Paying them(The Restaurants) Already Years Ago...Their Is Just No Such Thing As Free As Soon as Some one can use Something Their will Always Be A Market For It so in Layman's terms that Means Some Body Wants Money ..if you could convince people to buy dog crap for a month you would see some one selling it..that is just the way it works ! But Still Very Cool But Investing hard cash for a fancy machine is just some one elses way of taking money from you to make their life better & Not Yours !
