Earlier this week, I was sitting behind a diesel car at a set of traffic lights. As we sat there, for quite a while as the lights went through a pedestrian crossing phase, he constantly kept revving the engine, belching out clouds of black smoke. it was apparent that the engine was in need of tlc as it I could hear the 'lumpiness' when it tried to tickover. Anyway, today i decided to wash the car as I have a busy weekend coming up. Whilst washing it I noticed that there were a number of little black spots all over the front grille, headlamps, bumper, number plate and the forward part of the bonnet. Turns out it is unburnt veg oil. I am not usually vindictive towards other motorists, but I hope that if his car is unsuitable for burning veg oil, it is off the road pretty quickly. It is a devil to clean off.
