VW Diesel and Veg Oil

Somehow you have created a new thread rather than responding to a previously existing thread. (The options include replying to a specific post, replying to a thread at large, or starting a new thread. One must watch the options closely.) A gallon of oil is about 140,000 Btu (depending on the specific oil), so your 0.75 gal/h sounds about right for 100,000 Btu/h.

Snooker, eh? That's not quite as common in the US, but it is a fun game. (You're on, Andy Capp!)

(Korean 4-ball billiards is an interesting variation, too.)

what is your definition of "clean veggie oil"?

the vast majority of difficulty's in this area are deposit related fouling, whether it is a byproduct of the oil combustion, or particulate in the fuel inhibiting filter and flow. Everyone I know who is a WasteVO, or even VirginVO InternalCombustionEngine owner, has mechanical problems on a regular basis. Is this common for other people?

I know people don't believe this, but modern engines need refined fuel.

I agree. I clean mine with a centrafuge,I use old engines, and have lots of spare parts on hand. I also heat my oil to 160 deg f before the injection pump. I have had some filter clogging proplems but for the most part it has been ok..

The spirit of these threads is one of interest and curiosity, giving participants knowledge, sparking innovation, educating. Ease up pony boy, you might learn something.

Running diesels here in SD for the state what we had to help prevent fuel line geling was a hot coolant unit inline prior to the filters and injectors. This way we kept the fuel warm enough to not gel up on the really cold days.

Basically it looked like a tank heater but ran the fuel thru a coil pipe inside with hose connections to circulate warm coolant thru the unit.

Had very good luck with them.
