What's the Toyota's official stand on biodiesel in post-2000 LandCruisers? Any real-life experiences? Also, how about conversion to run on veggie oil - can it be done?

IF you ever get an Official Response from Toyota, I bet Toyota prohibits the introduction of ANY 'homebrewed" biodiesel and likely look down on ASTM 5762 spec biodiesel. Diesels with common rail injection don't fare well on a strong diet of biodiesel. The older mechanical injection systems having an inline pump (as opposed to the rotary VE design) will run quite happily on clean biodiesel fuels without much complaint.

Try asking that question in aus.cars group. There's a couple of people there which have done the biodeisel thing.
Ok, if this is the case what years LandCruisers can survive on biodiesel/veggie oil diet?
thx! Peter
