Those lines come with the connectors on them. I do sell them.

Everything is clean, hoses and clamps are new and all snugged up. Had a problem at first when I reverses the veg oil feed and return line. With that corrected everything is working great. Switch over time from cold engine start with diesel to veg oil takes less than 5 minutes and switch over is seamless. There is no difference in performance when the veg oil kicks in and miles per gallon seems to be slightly less than diesel, about 22 mpg. Winter time changeover takes about ten minutes. Thanks to all who contributed, I now understand my fuel system very well. Does Rusty have the hard plastic line used for some of the connections to the injector as well the line from the back of the engine to the ALDA assembly? What is it called? What is the best way connect to these lines to the fittings? Thanks, Mik Michael E.

When I add the main filter to the route I do not get fuel. This may be a problem because of the way the veg oil circuit was plumbed. I have taken veg oil components out of the circuit until i determine the issue. I will continue to work on tomorrow. >> I could not open the file you sent, could you please try to send again to my direct mail michael...@mac.com. >> >> Thanks, >> Mike >> >> Michael E.
