Membership

Welcome:

We are a group of West Australians dedicated to pursuing and promoting the use of renewable fuels for the benefit of all. We have an online prescence but what we offer is best shared face to face.
Most members run their diesel vehicles on Vegetable Oil sourced from local sources.
They make their own BioDiesel; or convert their vehicle to use the vegetable oil directly as fuel.
