looks like that link is dead. sure looks interesting, though. just watched a highly inspiring documentary called the Coconut Revolution which deals quite directly with the use of coconut oil as fuel. a claim was made that coconut oil *doubles* the mpg of diesel. true? false?

yikes.... late responce but... still a responce. It's FALSE. Though it is a still a workable alternative fuel to diesel according to where you live.
