I have recently finished converting my second vechile and thought I would share a few photo's. The first 2 photo's are of my 2003 Toyota 100 series Landcruiser WVO conversion. I have also included photo's of my 2000 Mazda Bravo conversion, my WVO collection tank and filtration machine.





In the Landcruiser conversion the WVO is firstly heated through a 20 plate heat exchanger, which I purchased through my loacal home brew shop for $100. I was able to fit the unit to my Ryco hydraulic filter, which meant I did not need to make or purchase brackets. The oil then passes through the filter, into the valve and into a 12v electric heater. This electric heater is situated just before the IP pump. All other parts needed for the conversion (eg. tanks and valves) came factory with the Landcruiser making it an easy car to convert.

Below is a photo of my 2000 Mazda Bravo conversion. The conversion is similar to the Landcruiser, but I have used a stainless heat exchanger instead of the 20 plate exchanger. I have found both work. For this conversion I had to install a second tank and a 6 port pollak valve.







The two photo's above are of firstly; My WVO collection tank, which I can carry up to 400ltrs of filtered oil at any one time.
secondly; My filtration machine , which allows me to filter 60ltrs of WVO to 1 micron in under 5min on site.

Can you convert a nissan patrol to SVO like the cruiser?

Could you give me some more info on this machine? Where would a person get one?

is it a 100 series or a 105 (non-turbo)?

I looked into a Patrol, when purchasing the cruiser, I found that the Patrol has a direct injected model(not really suitable) and an indirect injected model(suitable/like cruiser), so it is best to do your research as this is only my opinion of course.
Thanks

Hi David

The machine was purchased along with my business, which is to filter cooking oil in hotels , taverns etc and is not sold anywhere seperatly.

Thanks
Aaron

Yes, its a non-turbo model.

Nice work Aaron,

Where did you get the heater from, is the heat exchanger from a beer home brew shop??? or fuel home brew shop??
