did u mean already 175000 km on cooking oil?

that's fantastic man!

thinking of using in my car also, but only have 1 car, plus i'm a student, anything happen i won't afford to tanggung...cis

So peeche and ibmlenovo..what's your progress now? any chance to strip down engine like fatani?

even have seen so many pics and heard tonnes of stories..still worried lah, coz no proper RnD (normal Malaysian mind setting...everything comes from US and westerners are always good, and high degree of doubt to local home-made researcher...ahahaha)

worried of long term (as in 50-100K or sumting) effect...cant afford car breakdown at roadside and turns out need to transplant or sumting...money is one thing, scolded by father is another thing coz it's his car...hahaha

Do both of you put any additives together with the palm oil?

p/s ibmlenovo: till now the oils still doesnt decrease after regular usage? it might burnt and evaporate on its boiling point is it?

You sure it's because of palm oil or sumting else? any experiment on short but frequent engine run to see how's the effect coz that's what we practically do everyday, not driving 60 hours straight on highway (even recommended to stop after every 2 hour to get enuf rest ). Any trial of long engine run on real engine oil and see how's the effect as well? coz i'm thinking that the clog might be because of the time and not the oil itself (thinking without any theory in head ).

Also i wonder whether the oil vapourise on high temperature...what's the maximum engine temperature? does it exceed boiling point of palm oil?

btw, can we all have a look at your research paper? or at least the abstract?

Many thanks

did u put any additives? or did u use pure palm oil? or half-half with engine oil?

need advice..my car is wira 1.3 manual injection, almost 10 years already...before change to it..do i need check inside engine first (piston, valve..bla bla bla)? or anything i need to do in specific before going for palm oil?

my gasket bocor a bit, but mech said it's not severe, coz never found dripping on the floor yet, it just bring up dirt at the bottom of engine

do i need to fix that first before going for this oil? can anybody explain what will they do changing gasket and how much usually the rough cost?
