Was thinking of using a vegetable oil as a motor oil just to see if it will help me pass emissions. Last time I tried to pass I got very close but was just a little high with NOx.
I didn't end up needed to pass emissions as I moved away. I now need to pass.
Been reading that unrefined Canola oil oil results in very low emissions when used as a motor oil. I cant find unrefined Canola oil. My second thought was to try Castor oil. I know it has been used as a motor oil in the past but not sure if it will help lower emissions like NOx.
I have looked into the Smoke Free Oils and that they lower emissions but dont like the price of the oil. They are quite pricy. I would like to try a low cost vegetable oil first to see if there is any change in emissions. If the veggie oil worked, then I would consider trying the No Smoke Oils.
My plan is to just drain and fill with veggie oil and go right to the emissions station, then drain and fill with motor oil.
If I go with Castor oil (not Castrol oil), is there more than one grade of Castor oil or do I just buy the cheapest Castor oil I can find?
