Will this Pump Vegetable Oil?
Be aware that many pumps just can not do this job well. Most pumps are full of plastic parts that melt when they are overworked by a thicker liquid. For this reason Gear Oil and Heavy Duty pumps are the best choices. This pump is designed for consistently pumping thick liquids - perfect for Veggie. Read the GreaseBeast Filtration Guide to understand more about collecting grease for fuel. This pump will perform best when the vegetable oil is fluid.

Oil Source?
Finding good waste vegetable oil is an art and a science. There is certainly a learning curve for this skill, but as any veggie enthusiast will tell you - research first, try it out, be persistent, and you'll be able to spot and filter good veggie like a pro! Generally Asian buffet places are golden. Read about where to look and how to ask for it in the GreaseBeast Guide, and follow us along on an oil hunt:
Converting a Vehicle to SVO?

"the Diesel engine can be fed vegetable oils” which
“may become in the course of time as important as petroleum"
-Rudolf Diesel, Diesel Engine Inventor, 1911
Handling Oil?
Vegetable Oil can be very sticky on any surface it comes in contact with. It will stain clothing and fabric, as well as garages, driveways, and wood. Be aware of this when filtering as minor precautions can save you alot of mess. For instance, wear gloves, wait for drips to fall before moving hoses, and put down cardboard or a plastic sheet around an area that you use to filter - or choose an area that is okay to get messy, or can be power-washed to be cleaned. Throwing on a jumpsuit or wearing clothes that can get dirty is a good precaution. Read more in the GreaseBeast Guide.
