Diesel/Veggie Lister in operation (1/2 pistons)

Mark has improved his setup. Here the engine is running under its own power - single cylinder.

Added since last post:
- exhaust pipes vent to outside (flex pipe on left)
- glow plugs added for easier starting (battery powered - right)
- 3 40L fuel jugs hung from cieling
- 3-to-1 fuel valve to select fuel (diesel or veggie)

Still to-do:
- cooling system
- muffler
- sound-proof the shed
- install electrical cables to his house
- coil veggie fuel lines around exhaust to keep them liquid in the Ottawa winter

We're doing 2 cylinders all the time and find load to consume it. The winter is easy - just turn on baseboard heaters.

Summer will be trickier. I've got new videos I want to add soon. We have a muffler, veggie oil pre-heater, and electrical setup now!

Are you setting it up to run on one or two cylinders based on load?
