List members, Here is what I learned- I had a contract to have the restaurant pay me $1 per gallon to pick up their WVO. As the restaurant was brand new, I was being a nice guy and not billing them for my services. [yet] It's very important to have a document trail when working with grease

Re: [biofuel] Benz question...sorry,not biofuel related

Steven, You have a vacuum leak that needs quick attention. The 123 MB 5 cylinder turbo-diesels have a shut off lever next to and centered with the valve cover/head of the engine. Push it if it's still running. The shutoff for this car is vacuum operated. There are two tiny vacuum lines

Here in South East Ga, the waste grease removal business is very cut throat. I had a regular, free pickup service going on and got edged out by a big pickup firm locally. What's better than free- a contract- that's what. In rural Ga, used grease is often sold to folk for use in personal

Re: [biofuel] Discrepency in volumes

Test batches and large batches... It doesn't have to be perfect each time you process BD with regards to the ingredients and their amounts used. Just close enough. Use the heated WVO as your benchmark is my 2 cents. That works great for me. -Michael

Re: [biofuel] Mixing and heating questions

Howdy, I've built several processors now. I'd suggest going with a fumeless design processor. Girl_mark posted one a while back. The plans look outstanding. That would mean nixing the mixer idea. The open mixers are stinky and dangerous. Best regards, Michael
