Hello, everybody! I'm a new user.
I converted my semi truck (Kenworth T600 with Detroit series 60 engine) to run on WVO. The fuel is heated by two arctic fox heaters, then sent through a plate type heat exchanger, then into a Racor filter with a water jacket to keep it hot.
Everything was great for about 6000 miles, but then the check engine light came on and I started losing injectors. Took it to a Kenworth dealer and they pulled out the injectors, which were completely coked up. Carbon everywhere.
Any ideas why this happened? Any ideas how to prevent/clean the injectors? Is my oil too dirty? (it goes through a 10 micron filter with a water separator).
Any advice would be appreciated.
