Yes, but it's slightly thicker than rapeseed oil, so you may only get away with using a little less in the tank. I only found it a problem on colder mornings, but it was fine after the engine warmed up.

Have ran the Bongo on Sunflower oil/diesel mix no problems, but have found a cheaper rapeseed oil (20ltr) at an "Asian" supermarket........keep hunting! :lol:
