Hey guys, I have been following this discussion a fair bit over the years. This whole thing with cement in the fuel, trying to let it settle and so on.
For me there is no real gain to be seen. Yes...

There is a massive difference between...

Could you please give us more specific information on your vehicle?
is it the 1hz engine? Do you have a two tanks setup from factory?
cooking oil should be readily accessible, but it will take time...

Hi Jim, welcome to the world of grease and oil spills ;)

I am also not familiar with this method and have never heard of it either, I water wash my bio after the reaction and let it settle out....

You will also have to keep in mind that you are pumping oil, not diesel, 5m head for diesel most likely means even more for oil. From memory, with water, per meter of head you gain 1 bar.
I am not...

No a dumb question at all, I asked the same a while back.

The pressurised nozzle has a small tube in it, apparently when the fuel gets to it, it clicks off. The gravity fed ones don't have that....

I am taking my hat off :cool: 10 years without a bowser, respect!:)

your idea sounds good in theory, unfortunately there is no nozzle that clicks off automatically that uses gravity flow.

Yes these guys have the market here too, most of the shops say they are messy and unreliable. I was kind of hoping that they would go bust in this challenging times.

Thanks for these posts, how...

Can you still run run Dino in this vehicle?

Another thing that comes to mind, when I ran WVO in my first vehicle (Toyota 3l), I was very much a novice then, I forgot to flush the system plenty of...

Yea, that's what I always though, the country with one of the biggest population on the planet has a the whole thing confined to a province. While there seems to be no geographical boundaries for the...

Good morning everyone,

I have been composting most of my glycerine over the last 2 years....

Holy dooly, we are certainly getting ripped off up here. Diesel is 'going down' to 1.42 here in Nimbin. Not that is worries me, just shows that this fuel compactness do what ever they want. ...

Sure thing, just give me some notice. Looking forward to catching up,

In case you're just after some fuel to get you home, call in at my place if you don't mind the detour via Nimbin. Cheers Jens

Sorry to hear that Bruce!

The research I did was as mentioned on the Golf including the MK5

Looks like this situation is sorted.

Hi Bruce, looking at stepping up in the world:-) hope you're not trading the 80's for a Jetta? :-)

I looked into the VW thing a while back and I think the golf up to the MK5 would run bio no...

Yes the gravity fuges are more expensive, BUT they are a lot better. Trust me. As Algae said, the fast once rely on oil pressure, so if you have any bits blocking the jet you'll have pull it apart...

Hey guys, I have a supply of extremely good oil in Melbourne, unfortunately I won't be visiting Melbourne as frequently anymore, so if anyone is interested, let me know. Oil is from a catering...

I used to heat the oil when I had the CF stationary in the shed, but more because the oil was very average and I wanted everyone gone in one pass.
