Hi, about 6-7 months ago I posted about a guy selling Biodiesel here in WA and Member messaged someone his details (I can't remeber who!). I was just wondering if anyone had his details as I've lost them and want to order a drum.

Jeff,
I've heard there is someone selling it near Gingin. Don't know details.
There is one thing to make your own biodiesel and stick it in your vehicle, and quite another to be buying it from a backyard operator. Questions to ask are how much washing has it had, does it reach Australian Standards for biodiesel.
Contact the WA Renewable Fuel Association
http://www.shortcircuit.com.au/warfa/warfa.htm and come along to one of the monthly meetings. There are a number of people who make their own biodiesel who would give you lots of really good tips on either buying or making your new fuel.

There is hand painted
sign near the Bullsbrook Shopping Centre advertising Bio Diesel, with a mobile no. on it. Will have a look next time passing and try and record it. From memory it was $1.20 p/l.

Great!! That'd be the guy, it's gone up a bit hey! He must be paying tax on it now! ;-)
Great, if you can do that it'd be awsome, Thanks.

Hi Jeff,
I reckon you gave me his details a while back. I'd probably have your message at
home somewhere.
Unfortunately I'm at work now and won't get
home until next Tuesday evening.
I'll watch this thread to see if you get a reply before then - otherwise I'll dig it up for you.
Cheers
Stephen J.

Better late than never.
I have finally remembered to stop and write down the mobile of the guy selling Biodiesel in Bullsbrook.
Number is 0405 644 610, and listed price is $1.10 per litre.
Hope all works out, adn you save a few bucks.

RupertDog,
Many thanks for that. I'd lost his number as
well.
Cheers

Thanks SO MUCH! I even drove out to Bullsbrook after a bash through
the pines on Sunday to look for the sign and I couldn't find it!!
