Hello- what climate did you run the car in the first year. that didnt need supplemental heat?

[pgringo69]

@LanaMuckraker central Texas. we don't really have a winter here. this summer we set records on how many consecutive days we had over 100*

[Project23D]

what mode glowplugs are you using with the glowplug heater? I've been looking to build my own inline heater and you seem to have the best, most cost effective idea

[robroy0100]

hi dose the end off the glow plug tuch the fuel

[pgringo69]

@robroy0100 YES!

[garvintimmann]

i am about to do this again on a new vehicle, with single tank system and heated fuel. i will use 10% diesel with the fuel each time, as you have shown, is the electric heater fuel kit universal?

[circusboy90210]

that stuff looks really dirty ,, not sure if I want to trust that in a new engine .

[circusboy90210]

what's the pump rate on that pump???gpm?? is there an electric alternative????

[laurieh]

The glow plug is to decrease the viscosity.

[mannasteve]

newer vehicles are pickier. It will cost me about 5500 to do this to my diesel excursion.

[notogas]

Do you remove the water from the spent oil?

[brownlog86]

ive noticed a trend... Ppl who do this oil for diesel replament thing are always scrubs like the dude in this video... I would rather pay an extra 50cents a litre than be a dirty grease monkey.

[macupausini]

then you like to feed the saudi's pockets and be raped up the a@@ by oil prices... i choose grease monkey saving money

[eyerhymemusic]

Always scrubs? I know a high school principal, 2 university profs, and lawyer who do this! I also am an engineer and do this. Perhaps you enjoy working that cubical job all day for $12/hour to pay for your $70 of gas but I work for myself and my 130 liter tank costs me around $12. Plus I am NOT supporting oil companies who have profits in the BILLIONS YEAR AFTER YEAR and consistently lie. Government also protect these idiots-Taxes! Rethink the real "dirty grease monkey" ...oil companies/gov.

I have a 1990 VW Caravelle campervan 2.4ltr deisel and I run mine on 50% diesel 50% new unused Veggie oil ( $1.64 cents per ltr ) making sure to add 800 ml white spirit ( 55 cents ) for every 20ltr vegie oil and it runs like a dream. as diesel is now $2.60cents per ltr here in the U.K. no modification needed.

happy motoring.

[PowersofKhan]

i just recieved 45 gallons of unused Vegetable Oil from a restaurant. I have a 83 300sd Mercedes. COuld I just dump that into the tank, especially since its in the 80s and 90s here during the day? also, what about veggie oils that have other additives, like perservatives and what not? thanks.

[RobbieAndTheRobots]

I have a fever, and the only cure is...

GREASE CAR!!!!!

[pgringo69]

WUBBA WUBBA WUBBA!!!!!

i <3 robots.

[doctordude]

Have any problems running the veggie oil without modifying the engine during that first year?

[pgringo69]

no. with good quality oil in a warm climate there have been no problems. quality non-hydrogenated oil with no water present is the key. the car started and ran in freezing temps with 2 cycles of the glowplugs just as a precaution.

[doctordude]

Thanks a lot. That's very interesting. I'm just starting out, you've been quite helpful. Gracias.

[mk3stargazer]

i been doing this for over two years and its an excellent way to drive!

[2012rodrigo2012]

did you convert your vehicle or just use the veggie oil straight?

[mk3stargazer]

hi,i use new or used veg oil.only modifications i done wer puttin in a twin tank & use a water heated fuel filter housing made by purflex,this thins the oil better in the winter,in the summer i dont use it.i dont use solenoids and electronic gizmos,i just put in a 3 way ball valve(bought from a boatyard)on the floor to switch between the 2 tanks.i purge the system with diesel for two minutes at night then its ready to go in the morning. you can jus run your car on a 50/50 mix of veg & diesel tho
