35L old engine and cooking oil added at this fill. No 500ppm available. Performance very bad through mountain passes. Includes last push to CT on main roads where drastic speed increased to stay out of the way of idiots trying to increase the road death toll.

Stopped using old cooking oil due to fuel filter blockages and difficult starting. Since 16 July been driving neighbourhood watch, average of 70Km per night, 3-4 nights a week at idle speed in 4th. Fuel consumption seems excellent.
