Steve Obviously you are doing it! - I'd like to ask you a question or two.
And anyone else who may have the time? thanks. What is your opinion on Direct Injection - say a 3 cylinder Ford Dexta (circa 1958) tractor running WVO for electricity generation - PROVIDING of course the WVO tank is heated?

We beg to differ, and have been running them for 2 years now, The dissidents will tell you 2 years (and over 50k miles) is not a long enough time period to tall, but fail to indicate what mileage they would accept as proof. Meanwhile, we keep driving. In the interests of peace and love, any non-direct injected engine will work wonderfully if the oil is heated properly (there is disagreement on what "properly" means as well). US kit makers include: greasel (which we sell) greasecar greasemonkey (seems to have disappeared) Canada has Neoteric. Steve Spence Subscribe to the Renewable Energy Newsletter & Discussion Boards.

I have read much information on the controversy about DI engines and their ability to run properly and long-term on WVO. Does anyone have any first hand experience with this? I am also looking into older mercedes (S-class in particular) along with newer VW TDI's and older VW's. I've heard that mercedes engines can almost run on lard. > > Also, there are a slew of conversion kits out there, mostly from Europe - any recommendations? > > Thanks in advance and cheers, > > -- Ben > > > > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
