They do. In the norht of england the situation has gotten so bad with 
fuel prices that diesel owners are converting to veggie oil in droves. 
Distributors have been selling out of it constantly for months. THey've 
actually had to ration how much they sell.

The best way of doing it is to take used fryer oil (non-lard) and add a 
few tablespoons per liter of white spirits and denatured alcohol. It'll 
actually run better than the standard diesel fuel unless you have a 
high perssure turbo or hihg pressure common rail injection system in 
which case you need to run with diesel injector cleaner in the fuel as 
well. Its still works out to less than $1 per gallon, and in englan 
where diesel is currently selling for something like 4 times that...
