Announcing the first ever Austin Greaseup! (and seeking volunteers)

July 3rd, 2008 by admin

On Sunday, September 7th, from 4-8PM, at a location to be announced, there is a planned meeting of Austin vegetable oil fuel enthusiasts. If you have a vehicle converted to run on vegetable oil, we NEED you to attend. If you’re interested in converting your car, or just want to see a bunch of converted cars, this is your chance to see them all together. We also plan to have at least one diesel mechanic to answer questions about general maintenance and repairs, as well as the DieselGreen team to answer questions about conversions. 

We are still in the early planning stages and are looking for one or two volunteers to help put the event together - make flyers, take to our retail locations, set up food, etc. Anyone interested should contact Andrew Taft at 703-585-1578 or taftandrew@yahoo.com.

We hope to build momentum with this meeting, perhaps establish a Meetup group, and establish a real community of vegetable oil fuel users. Please forward this to any interested parties or email lists.

Thanks!

    Hi Jason! I wondered if the August 3 grease-up event is still on. I also have about 15 of those 275 gallon totes that make great diesel tanks and am selling them for $150. Give me a call at 512/470-6576 or pass along my number if you know someone looking for these still. Thanks,
    Mark
