aceite vegetal no modificado o "directo" (SVO, por sus siglas en inglés))
Any vegetable oil that has not been optimized through the process of transesterification. Using this type of veggie oil in your diesel automobile requires an engine modification that heats the oil before it reaches the fuel injectors -- otherwise, the veggie oil gets all gummed up in cold weather. Essentially, once your vehicle is modified, you could just grab a bottle of canola oil at your local grocer, dump it in, and be good to go.
