Hi Tony.
I'm a longtime member here but I have been off forums and inactive for some years.

I previously purchased an FPHE and some bags from you, I'd like to make a similar purchase again.

...

NT, Darwin suburbs. No stock of filtered oil but can obtain oil in advance if anyone needs it. Currently no filtering/drying facilities.

I'd be interested in something like this, but I'd want a serial/USB output so I could run it on a laptop.

This would also simplify the data acquisition/storage/graphical display.

I haven't...

Interesting choice of engine.
Are you planning on this being an SVO vehicle?
Not sure but I think they may have a VE type pump.

Anyway, yes I have the manual for that motor - PM me if you need...

I have a number of 20 litre containers which have previously held vegetable oil (rice bran).

What I want to do is to clean them out thoroughly.

What should I be using for the best result?

I...

I will measure up my 750ml cooler and post dimensions, as well as look into availability.

I would suggest that someone on the east coast may have more luck - they're all brewed over there and we...

Not sure what you mean by 'King Brown'?
I thought that was your standard 'longneck' 750ml (or maybe 800ml these days).

I do have a Toohey's longneck cooler, it's a promo of some kind, not sure if...

Has anyone ever tried using stubbieholders / coolers?
They're the same or similar neoprene material at wetsuits, right?

Sorry, but I had to ask; it's the Territorian in me :)

Hi Joe.

Maybe I need to clarify:
I'm not talking about putting stuff up online, just a note to say 'Hey, this is what I have, if anyone needs info/scans from these books, PM me'

(I was...

Hi All.

Thought I'd start this thread as a resource for engine/pump data etc.
In case anyone needs any specs etc, please feel free to ask for a scan; or I can also just forward any requested info...

Go the mighty SD33T!

Actually there are some backstops welded on the bottom so when you push the drum in it lines up Ok.

In the end the guys didn't want the stand, just took the basin as a funnel - a bit dodgy if you...

Socrates, forget I said anything - I'm an electronics engineer and not a plumber - I'm working on the 'path of least resistance gets the most flow' concept.

It occurs to me that this is likely...

Probably not worth attaching much value to my comment _ I am only an armchair theorist at this stage.

If you heard it from someone who has done it - their words are worth a thousand of mine.

Oh...

Unless I'm missing something, that bypass hose will also rob your heater of flow when it's on.

Here's something I knocked up today from

-A syringe / medical waste trolley
-An eyebath basin

A couple of cuts and welds and voila.

I have an oil source who is happy to give me all his...

Yeah that is pretty close to how I visualised it.
But seriously, it'd probably be fine - it's just having to explain the hose running from the roofrack down into the engine bay that'd give me grief...

Tony/Tim,

Range is not going to be a problem. I should have said - I plan on taking about 300-400 litres in 20 litre containers.
I don't mind stopping every 20 litres, gimme a chance to stretch...

Same loss of consumption regardless of feedstock?

I'm hoping to squeeze 20 or 25 litres in there - and I'm assuming that will get me somewhere over 150kms, but I don't have any reliable consumption figures yet.

My old clapped out (6 cracked pots)...

Ok - as I thought then.

Re the heater and rego - I would be surprised if it was required (or at the least, enforced) here :)

I've currently got my heater bypassed completely.
(Not hard seeing as how there's so engine in at the moment, but anyway...)

What I would like to know is: Is it going to be ok to connect my HE in...

My Sunny station wagon (oil collection vehicle) has started to stink up the last few (damn hot) days.
Buggered if I know how - I am pretty anal about wiping drums and stuff down before it goes in...
