Hi all; Something happened, somewhat by accident (comes with being forgetful) that resolves the problem of the non-self priming Clear Water Pump that many of us are using. As has been mentioned numerous, times they kinda suck, or actually don't very well :), but that problem is now solved. How? God's own gravity. Instead of having the pump "suck" from a pail or bucket or whatever below it's position one needs to only gravity feed the WVO into the pump and no priming is necesssary. I do not know if this will work with cold WVO, but it does for sure work with pre-heated WVO, which I discoverd completely by accident having forgotten to prime it when I was ready to load the reactor after having heated my WVO to a little over 55C. As I opened the valve on my pre-heat tank (38 liter capapcity)and the intake valve to the pump I noticed that the sight tube registered oil in the lines, so I simply flipped on the switch to the pump and voila! pumped away like it is supposed to, so move those pails/tanks/drums ect... above the level of the pump and never have to prime again.
Have a nice day. L. PS: I now have 40 liters in the wash tank and another 40 in the reactor settling for me this PM once I quality test the later. ------------------------ Yahoo!
