If it's a diesel engine mower than you can convert the used veggie oil to bio diesel and use it however if your mower is gas powered than no you cannot, the reason being that diesel engines use high compression in order to be able to ignite and use the low octane diesel or biodiesel fuels where as gas engines do not need to do this as gas is highly combustable even at atmospheric pressure. And just another thing about this I have heard of people mistakingly putting gas into a diesle engine and blowing the engine apart because of the explosive combo of super high compression and the gasses high octane rating, NOT Good. Hope this helps
