Not sure if I am putting this in the right sub-fourm here, but:
Bacon Grease as Engine OIl

Thanks for the video....whoda thunk it? Thinned out badly but useful in an emergency....although I usually don't carry 10 pounds of bacon with me....
On par with the rest of his videos in terms of relevancy and technical merit.
None of which matters of course when you're making as much money off your videos as he apparently is doing. All you need are new ones.

I can see Bacon Grease engine flushes now.
Also I guess "thinner" won here because that heated grease looked like water.

Saw this video this morning. I watch his channel off-and-on and laughed when he pulled up the nutrition facts, when he would normally pulls up the SDS.
All i could think to his results (which I don't say with a ton of confidence) would be glycerol content of the oil accounting helping with the wear, and hydrophilic tendency for the vapors coming out.
I don't really understand the lack of carbon deposits.

Because it's super thick when it's cold.

It would make a mess if it leaked out on a porking lot

And it would smell like breakfast if it was burning oil. Folks would be fine with 1 quart of consumption every 1,000 miles then!

Sodium based additive, maybe not great for LSPI?

I can see the saturated fat content clogging the Oil Galleries and VVT system.

Oil pressure on bacon grease approximately the same as the IQs of these wanna-be Nobel laureates?

Darned right -- if the thing ever gets a chance to cool down, intact before it grenades. . .

Betcha the exhaust smells great. Is the clean combustion chamber a result of being steam cleaned by water vapor being cooked off? I like the Project Farm Guy's Videos. I used his drill starter on the 3 Lawnboys I revived last summer. I used to work with a guy who moonlighted as a mason. That's how he started the one bagger. I think you critics are jealous you didn't think of his niche job.

Well, shall we go whole hog -- no half-hog -- and smash into another lube taboo: informal lube mixing? I imagine if they went with half bacon grease and half pancake syrup, you'd have reeeeeeeeally nice smelling exhaust -- for a little while!
I imagine you could find an IHOP manager or two who'd be happy to pay you to do laps around his restaurant in a car so "lubricated"!
