patracy,
Do you have circulating pump for the coolant ?
Is your fuel pressure probe is orignal? (came with the truck) Where did you get it?
Where did you get your pressure relief valve?
Did you ever have problem with Mallory pump?
Did you have to rebuit yet?

Coolant is circulated by the vehicle's water pump. It's just an additional loop in the coolant system like a heater core is.
My vehicle didn't come with a fuel pressure probe.
I built everything.
Tractor supply.
No problems with the mallory pump.
WVO doesn't work well with a VP44 injection pump so I no longer use the setup. It did work wonderful with the WVO cut down with diesel though.

@patracy
Did you bought both pressure regulator & pressure sensor at tractor supply? I did not found it. Do you have any part number?

what is a 555ic.

Sure I sent you a message. Just need to know the specs you need.

Yep, made it myself. The timer is based from a 555 IC.

You the man. Did you make the controller?
