Re: DSE fuel

If DSE you mean Diesel Secret or something like that then don't get scammed. There's a reason why people that devote their lives to biofuel development will laugh at things like this.

Re: Using the engine to power a pump for CF?

Yeah that would be interesting to see how you could rig that up. I've been using a centrifuge for the past 4000 gallons of grease so far and great results. I just ran it 110V when I would stop and...

Re: Conversion of T444E Turbo Engine

If it's similar to a Powerstroke then it is a good motor to run on WVO. The fuel bowl is large but I haven't heard of it taking 20 mins to purge. A bypass isn't a bad idea anyway though. Just make...

Re: Using the Exhaust as a veg oil warmer?

Yeah I would agree, too much heat isn't good and can lead to polymerization. A properly set up coolant heating system works well and if you need more juice throw some 12v heaters in the mix

Re: dt466 two tank questions

Yeah anyone looking to install an aux pump make sure you know if your stock lift pump is 12v or gear driven. If it's gear driven you have the risk of pushing veggie into your crankcase oil. If it's...

Re: Onboard filtration systems

In my opinion a centrifuge is the only way to go for onboard filtration. You should run a 110v motor for the pump, I've never tried a 12v but it does require a lot of time to clean the grease. ...
