beetle

140,000 miles. 5-speed. TDI diesel, not sold in the U.S. Bright blue. Gets above 40 mph on either regular diesel, biodiesel, or used, FREE (filtered) cooking oil. Extra stainless steel tank for used grease/oil was installed in trunk (spare tire well) by the previous owner, an engineer, who then used the car daily for 2 years, running it mainly on grease. We installed a temperature sensor that indicates when the engine is warm enough to switch to grease, as well as a "grease gauge" so you can see how much you have left. Switch-over between diesel and grease (and vice-versa) is at the flick of a switch, while driving. We have run this car for thousands of miles without paying a penny for fuel (note: you must use diesel from the regular tank when starting the car and until it reaches the grease-running temperature).

The car is registered, inspected. The body is in good shape, no accidents, and it has been running well, but now NEEDS A CLUTCH. A/C does not work. Am/FM radio and CD player: works well but tuning mechanism is damaged, making tuning difficult, and this needs repair. A number of the seat-adjustment handles have broken and need to be replaced. Maybe needs shocks? Tires are good. We also include the filtering system for used grease and an instruction manual, as well as many plastic containers you can use for storage of used vegetable oil.

I just bought a 2006 Beetle TDI. Can it be converted,since the new injection system is different than '04 and older?
