 now it's time to get to work next up I will be installing there's a hole right there if you can see it two holes I'll be installing the bracket that I smashed my finger on yesterday which holds up this massive WVO designs vegetable oil pump badge you want to explain what's going on right now oh sorry this is what we're doing this is the return line right going down to the tank this goes straight from here to the tank now the problem is well it's not really a problem it's after he purges it the oil will be going down here so what I'm thinking of I know you find that hard to believe what I'm thinking is I'm gonna put this line with the water lines so when it returns it heats it up heats up the tank stupid idea I like that up the tank I like that now it's just an idea if I had the BASTO running and I had the pump on but the engine off it would warm the tank by circulating the fuel holy crap we got a genius on hand here also somebody asked where the flux capacitor was where is the flux that was a good question I love that was a good one that was a good one this is the last part of the vegetable oil conversion besides filling up the tank with vegetable oil this is the fuel lines going from the from fuel pump to the engine basically this is we're in the final stretch so the anticipation has been building for a very very long time we're both very excited to get this thing running on french fried juice guys we ran into a very serious issue we were short two fittings so that means we're gonna have to finish it tomorrow unless badge can work a miracle and pull out a trick out of a rabbit's hat here guys great news badge had an extra fitting in his bag of tricks so we're gonna try and get this smaller hose hooked up to the engine great news guys we got it all hooked up here this was the last part of the vegetable oil lines right now badge is taping up the fuel lines to the coolant lines if anybody is just tuning in that is to keep the fuel lines the fuel being the vegetable oil nice and toasty and that is also gonna make some baked potatoes you gonna make baked potatoes badge we're making yeah we're gonna make french fries oh yeah why don't you tell the class why you tell the class your recipe right wrap these wines to keep all the heat in here I think we're gonna get it too hot but we'll see we always take it off right yeah and this is just tinfoil that's a nut bar brother Billy brother Billy this is his trick and it works so this is the equivalent of wrapping your your wrap in your presence with a gift wrap because this is the gift that's gonna keep on giving like so this is a heavy-duty high-tech really expensive aluminum foil right from Walmart so it doesn't have to be the most expensive stuff yeah the only problem like I told Jack is he has to check his hoses to make sure they don't dry out which you probably will yeah because you're gonna dry out that rubber you're gonna get real hot we're just gonna put the rest of the tinfoil on wrap it with some of this tinfoil tape and then we'll check right back in with you all right ducting tape not quack quack this is Duc T that's right okay now if you guys come to Jamie's van build which is enigmatic nomadics it is a place where people help each other out nobody charges for stuff but if you need something done with your RV or van or you know like mobile nomad vehicle come on out it's gonna be over by Havasu slash Parker and if badge here fixes something on your rig make sure you say thank you with a very useful useful way now this was a thank you from someone from Bob he did a bunch of work on his thing and he got him a 480 piece terminal assortment he's probably use half of them he's got insulated wire connectors and these are shrink tubes electrical stuff so if you need something done come on out and he's not allowed to work and collect money but if he volunteers you could you know he could volunteer you guys could volunteer something nice in exchange remember Bob I give you a hard time over that and I said I didn't need him I never use him yep I just got him empty no he's he's do quite a few and several several of them are on my bus here now I'm gonna get to work I'm gonna wrap more of the cedar hose and tinfoil I finished wrapping this in tinfoil in duct DUCT not quack quack tape goes all the way down there not the whole entire thing is insulated with aluminum foil and duct tape but you get the idea now badge ran a wire through here what's going on so remember it seems like a month ago but it wasn't but remember a little while ago I I told you this is the pump relay yep this is running both this is running the diesel pump and the veggie pump when it's normally closed which is no power to it it's going to run the veggie pump and when it's on it runs a diesel pump so remember I put this wire in here yeah right yep this wire this one this one here yep okay so I take that off now and I plug in the veggie pump into that one 87 a yep okay now then I take the ground and I put up to here that's how we're charging that's how we're running the veggie pump all right so bad you want to explain what you did here with the terminals and connections all right there you have a focus what you have to use is a wire brush like this clean them now you have to get it down to the iron like here so what we do is you put a grinder on that and grind it and grind all the corrosion off these had to be all clean spotless so alright you guys ever use one of these things before well that was my first time I didn't do the best job but inside there that's where the vegetable oil goes so I'm just gonna have a little sneak hole right over to the tank all right you guys don't know what's going on you should by now I am not having a deep fry fish Friday we're gonna try and fill up this tank that is the hole that I made I am not sure that is gonna work but we're gonna try it if it doesn't work we'll do a square we also I was gifted kindly gifted by badge it's very nice 12 volt pump I know so I got this brand new pump that nozzle looks a little bit too short for that hole brand new got a brand new pump in the motor right here okay and he's got an idea take the thing off there and just stick the hose right in the tank now that nozzle should be long enough we're gonna explain the fuel system to you two tanks right 130 gallons and this one here is what 65 65 okay it comes from here diesel diesel to a pump right waste veggie oil pump right it's set at 35 psi okay it comes out of the pump and goes up to the side of the frame was the filter this is the original filter on the truck comes up to here from here we're gonna we got the waste vegetable why right to the solenoids yeah we're not gonna show you the song noise we're just gonna show you where they go right and that in plain English is just an electronic valve yeah so what the diesel do is sorry so then no they both go the same way right yeah it's alright okay so then it comes off here from the fuel filter up to the delivery normally closed side and then this one here is a return on the normally closed side and goes back to the fuel tank right and that's your diesel side okay now this one here goes up and it feeds the head here and here you got a return here and here so these go these one here these go into here right the returns go into here and the feeds go into there I know it looks confusing but it's not so you got two heads right both heads are exactly the same you can take the left head put on the right right left okay so the front you got the front is on this one here the front is the return on this one this is so we put return here and the reason is guys let me show you guys something we're where my where my index finger is right watch what happens when you switch an identical head to the opposite side like that so that's how they're identical the same that's why they have plugs on both sides so they can manufacture one head and use it on both sides and on the international that's why I still say to this day until the day I die that nobody's ever done it because they call this a deadhead system what a deadhead system is as a fuel comes up through here without the why it just uses a fuel and they come to the fuel lines and goes into the head there's no return the return went back on the filter house remember we took off that one on the side I showed you with the hole in it that's why the fuel goes into the head and that's it it doesn't go nowhere now when the fuel goes in the head now it goes in the head and out the return so you're right all the 73 guys are clapping because now you don't have a priming problem turn the pump on that goes in the line up here into the head down the head and out the return which you can't do that and the 73 guys will tell you that it's a it's a pain to bleed these things okay so you got the diesel yes the tank into the pump from the pump to the filter from the filter up to the solenoid and this is diesel so it go into the head through the head and out the return and comes back to the thing that's how the diesel works now the veggie works exactly the same way exactly except we added heat and we taped it up and we got a different filter on it so this is how the veggie goes and by the way the waste vegetable system or the straight vegetable oil system essentially you are creating two systems in parallel two identical systems there is not a thing different except we put heat to the waste veggie oil you cannot heat diesel just remember that you cannot eat diesel we have no heat going on the lines going to the head or the return lines on the diesel side none whatsoever that's all before the heads okay so we got the tank here and it feeds into a DAVco which is a water remover and fuel filters and then it goes from here to the veggie pump from the veggie pump it goes into the plate exchanger the heater up here and we have a plate exchanger which has two ports here and two ports here okay so this goes up to that side there and then this side comes down and goes into this valve right on the normally open side okay so that's the fuel comes in from the tank to the DAVco now the DAVco is always on the vacuum side you never put on a pressure side comes into the waste veggie pump which is a WVO designs yeah and then which is a W design it's made for oil so we'll see it comes from the pump goes in the pump out the pump comes over here the plate exchanger from the plate exchanger that goes into this Y okay now the return system I'm gonna make a big long line but it's not that long you come it comes up here on the normally open side so you don't need no power on the solenoids to run the system on veggie oil now the reason for that and the only reason for that is that the solenoids get warm when you're using power so why would we the longest one that we figure we're running on is the one that we're gonna use normally open which is gonna be veggie because I don't think this thing's gonna run a very little diesel so by default which means by default this is design we're designing it to run on diesel so we're just gonna have to push some buttons to turn the diesel on and turn it off to run it on oil yeah so the return on the oil you turn it you turn the switches off the diesel switches off there's no switches to control the there is no switches to control the veggie oil pump it's a the veggie oil pump works or the diesel pump works one or the other and he knows how to get around that if he has an issue okay and we come out the return side on the normal open side we have no key powered okay so the fuels the veggies coming in here to the pump or to the Davco from the Davco to the waste oil pump or from the waste oil pump from there it goes over the 32 blade heat exchanger from the heat exchanger it comes here now this hose here is only like 8 inches so and then it goes into the head here and here the same as diesel and it comes out the return the same as a diesel now the reason for that is because nobody nobody could tell me if they could purge this deadhead system nobody they said oh well you just switch the switches and it purges yeah but can you guarantee me all the deal all the veggie oil no you can't on a deadhead system you cannot guarantee that you got all the veggie oil out on our system you can because a diesel will come in here to purge it and push the veggie right down the return line essentially it's a recirculating system it totally so then we come back here and there's just a long line this does no it's a lot shorter in the engine yeah and then it goes back to the fuel tank it starts all over again right now this sear system doesn't return a whole bunch of fuel because we got the pump set at 35 psi which means that it'll constantly feed 35 psi so not a whole bunch is going to be returned not like normal diesel okay now the difference between you're going to say yes this is the same as that the only difference is we've got a plate exchanger in here and a little different fuel filter but it's exactly the same as a diesel system except all the hose with X's on them right are heated we wrapped in in heater hoses yep we right wrapped all wrapped in heater hoses and tape wrapped in tin foil just like a potato on the barbecue yeah and you've seen pictures of that and this one here is wrapped the whole way too almost darn near all the way and also guys the purpose of this is to heat the fuel and also this is heated too which is it's everything's heated by the coolant yeah this is that I'll I'll show you that we'll bust on a little short circuit okay but that's how the fuel system is now the difference between this one here and this one here is a plate is a plate heater and a different filter the system is exactly the same exactly the diesel and the veggie oil are exactly the same so I know a couple guys I've got some names in the back of my head you know like Zeeman saying well you can probably take this tank here and fill it with diesel it with vegetable oil very good you kid as long as you heat that line as long as you heat that line up and get it up you could do it but we wanted two systems now you got to remember there's a whole bunch of ways the skin and cat and a Canadian drag racer will find them and you just got to remember that when we started this out it was I want two systems one for veggie and one for diesel not a blend or something cheaper this is what I want so that's what he got exactly two complete systems and for some reason if something goes wrong on the vegetable oil side guess what guys a flip of a switch I'm running on diesel and vice versa right sometimes you'll have an issue with something somewhere along the line and with the press of a button I can you know change over to that that's what having a dual system is all about is it arts and crafts time what are you drawing there badge what are you drawing the anticipation is killing us okay now this is out of context believe me it's not it's it's hard to we showed you all the stuff on the truck but this isn't how it's laid out in the truck I'm just showing you how it works and the 20 this is the 28 plate heat exchanger now these two lines here are these two right here so this is what we got here you got an in and you got an out of the Wabasto and this is Wabasto for everyone's recollection is a diesel powered fuel or actually diesel powered coolant heater yeah so what we do is we come from the heater to the Wabasto from the Wabasto we come out and we go to the 32 plate from the 32 plate we go to the Davco yes the Davco has got a heating element in it it is also it also has an electric heating element yeah plug it in but we probably won't use it yeah we're just hooked to the coolant from the Davco it comes back to the engine this is a circuit okay remember we got a valve that's a coolant system we got a valve and we got a valve right so our sorry these two we got the valve is here sorry this valve is there okay you're good so the engine the heating goes through here through the heater comes down through the heater to the Davco from the Davco to the 32 plate back to the Wabasto but the Wabasto goes back to the bottom of the motor and then now if it's really super hot out like he says he's not going to go there so we'll see if it's super hot out you turn the taps off right this one off this one off and open the bypass and what it does is makes the water come down here and like that and bypass the heater I know ingenious isn't it totally ingenious so that's how the fuel system both systems are exactly the same this one's got heated fuel lines this one don't this one's got a Davco this one's got a fuel filter and this one's got a plate exchanger and this one don't because you never heat diesel but you heat engine oil or uh felt waste vegetable by the way I want to think uh provincial powertrain uh eor for the Davco I salvage that off a truck he saved us a like he saved us a ton of money like you could never thank Igor for what he done because he gives you the games a couple thousand bucks easy yeah easily easily easily so um oh yeah we should that's right the fuel system sponsored by provincial powertrain for all your heavy duty exact truck he's got a funny number I'm not sure what it is he can buy parts for him all over because he ships better than dude he rebuilds diesel engines and transmissions that are worth one of the best automatic transmission guys in probably North America bar none okay so that's the fuel system now we go over here and see how close we were okay so remember this picture here I showed you about a week ago or two weeks ago so we basically got this system except we don't have this now that's uh this is we got the fuel filter and we that's supposed to be the tank with a heater in and out I forgot to request that so 12 the heater the heat exchanger in here that's about all but other than that it's all basically the same as that are you ready to fire this thing up on veggie somebody gets a veggie oil in it let's check this out look at that that's sucking that baby down man it sure is we are now pumping oil into the fuel tank this is absolutely crazy I can't believe I can't believe we're gonna try and run a vehicle on cooking oil it just sounds completely ridiculous no I know but it just seems like so ridiculous right like why would you do this but it works so well we gotta fire it up and then we can say it works what is ridiculous is when you go to the bar and think you're gonna pick up the best-looking girl there that's ridiculous well to tell you the truth I'd rather go to the bar and pick up 100 gallons of oil than a best-looking chick it'll give me a lot further in life this is the uh leftovers this is the pantyhose uh method and I'm thinking I should have got like 10 pairs of pantyhose because this thing is uh clogging up pretty well here I know okay all right this is the pantyhose filtered oil badge flip the switch you're now sucking this very very dark coffee colored oil into the fuel tank over here yeah badge can I borrow a pair of your pantyhose bro we might need some more if you remember who went to the store to get them okay yeah that's me poured about 50 plus gallons of dirty oil over now for the first time badge switched over to vegetable oil although we still have vegetable oils in the line he's keeping an eye on the pressure regulator I don't know when it's gonna start burning veggie oil but it should hear pretty soon that was the pressure you're gonna adjust the pump this is exciting news guys I have a feeling this is gonna be a very long vlog so thank you guys for sticking around if you guys watch from the beginning badges checking out the pressure the oil pump is on I think he's trying to prime it I could be wrong definitely not a mechanic but I've been picking up on things is the dabaco filling up with oil we're troubleshooting key is off we're on diesel here yeah badge you want to explain what we're doing briefly what we're doing is uh you gotta get it the veggie line's empty so we got to get it from the tank which has got thick veggie oil in it to the pump to the filter and it's sucking on the vacuum side so it's got to suck all that air out of it right so instead of screwing up the $500 veggie pump you prime the filter with diesel basically you fill you fill the pump with diesel all right so there is a pump inside here and badges is pouring it inside of the filter how he knows all the stuff I will never know for this I don't even know I'm ready for this badge are you ready for this okay now right now diesel diesel is on veggie is now on across your fingers folks it's still running it could be still fuel in the system we do not know if this is going to work right now rev it up he's got his hands up I don't know what that means I mean I think it's working go smell it it actually sounds like the engine is uh more lubricated right now it could be wrong it does have a slightly different sound to the engine it's got my foot on the gas no kidding me the vegetable oil system is running let's get our first whiff well but right now it's a mix so I think the fuel is still kind of mixing through it does smell like uh falafels we did get it from a pizza place that has thought oh yeah I get that nice odor so I think we're up and running let's take a look at the filter this is the color of the fuel right now okay that's the oil let's take a look at the filter that's a fuel the fuel filter you can't really tell what color the fuel is going through it's very hot yeah so I think we did it I was expecting honestly more of a french fry smell so oh yeah let's stand back a bit yeah that's not diesel fuel that my friends have some french fries my bus has a high idle feature they turn that on and turn that down where it says throttle right so that'll rev up the engine we got 1500 rpms I just want to do that so we can push out some of the fuel see what see what kind of odor we're getting back here oh yeah that's that's definitely veggie oil oh that's just such a no add to your story there you go bad judge the story but by the way anybody wants to follow badge on instagram it's vlight rving same as youtube dude you did it high five man this fucking awesome even with the canadian postal service we did it canadian i hate canadian ups man worse than mosquitoes you know i'm gonna there's a couple guys that've been taxing me back and forth like uh what's his name z max this is so freaking simple z you won't believe it it's just so simple there's no information around and I don't know why everybody don't do it probably because they don't want to go get the oil yeah but look at the thing runs as clean as a whistle you can't even tell uh badge you know honestly I swear right when we switched over you'll hear a difference in the engine it sounds a little bit different it sounds crazy yes it does sound quieter it sounds more lubricated so that's what you that's that's how we oil up or fuel up huh bad I forget how many jerry uh jugs here we go one two three four five six seven eight nine ten they weren't all the way full so we'll just call it like 45 yeah 45 gallons something like that so anyways we'll pick up 10 more tomorrow this is nuts that's really strong i'm gonna turn the aisle down oh yeah coming inside and uh listen to the idol all right badge do the honors the maiden voyage badge everybody all right it's on automatic so just uh do the closing there we go look at that the door even works look at that everything works oh yeah I got the wood off the roof yeah yeah so he's uh purging it to diesel they're running on diesel I swear it sounds I swear it sounds better when it's running on veggie I knew you'd call I knew you would call what it does on uh diesel we're just going for our first maiden voyage yeah look at this oh it runs like it does and guess what it smells like fried chicken in the back fried chicken yes it's true it does it runs really good all the way we had was a problem picking up fuel but I knew that so we purged it and it worked just fine yeah it works good after so much anticipation and so much desire want and need parks all the trouble that we went through all the sweat all the money all the delay and running on vegetable oil and it's almost a surreal feeling because there's so much energy that went into this moment right now it's kind of like it's almost like I can't really believe what's happening right now but it feels good and I couldn't have done it without you well you could have done it without me give it just a little slower that's all Michael's got a little bit of work you see a lot of a numbness baby even with all the screw up it just turned off yeah I got it yeah it looks good it's fun oh yeah it's smoking I know you know the funny part about it is it smells like chicken oh it's fried chicken because that's what they use the oil for but it's so but it runs so good it actually runs better I think so I think so too it's a lot more path yeah yeah and the engine is a little bit wider it's still not the oil I'm 40 it's not that I'm good fresh I'm 40 yeah freak store yeah I'm thirsty
