Hi Jeff;
First let me say I am not a nuclear proponent. Quite the opposite. But
I read your post and I thought, ok if they raise the rates because of
the cost for comissioning and decommissioning, then how is it that they
make more money? I am not arguing that the rates go up. Here in Ontario
Hi Andrew;
The acidic water may have encouraged rust. I have tried hot water and
found it to be an improvement so I don't think that is it. I am no

Hello all,
I'm interested ingetting
adiesel generator. A friend has offered me a VW Rabbit diesel engine
(48HP) and says it would be great to power a generator. It seems a bit overkill.
I was looking at 4 - 6 HP.
Guidance here would be
appreciated.

Mike,
I used JB Weld (epoxy?) to attach some fittings to my settling tank and
to my wash tank. It has held up very well to biodiesel exposure.

Yeah, I'd rig up several generators to it. Or better yet, you can buy 10 - 20kW generators from northerntool.com which are meant to be driven off of PTO's from tractors. If you are running the rabbit engine at a nice 1,800 or 2,000 rpm instead of redlined at 4,500 where the 48 hp is measured, it
I'll try that - bear in mind this epoxy was exposed to methoxide, not
finished BD. The methoxide really did a number on it. It may well be
fine for BD storage and washing.

Take the motor anyway! Is it any good? It'll fit a lot cars.

Yeah, Mike's got a point. It'll pretty much bolt into any volkswagen, diesel or gas, made between 1977 and 1996 or thereabouts. If it's a good engine, you might be able to find an old VW jetta with a toasted engine, drop it in, and have a biodiesel car.

I've also used JB weld to attach the temp sensor to the engine block on my VW, and so far, it has survived 6 months of biodiesel exposure (fuel line leak soaked entire engine) and regular heating to 190 - 225F. I do know that brake fluid will slowly dissolve JB weld though. I used it to seal a

Good point. One question I have on the tendancy of biodiesel to dissolve stuff. How much of that is due to biodiesel itself, and how much is due to unwashed biodiesel which may still contain methanol and such? Though hopefully no methoxide any more. I know my ASTM biodiesel that I bought is still

Very rough,
48Hp close to 30Kw at 4,000 plus. At 1,800 is about
12Kw minus Power factor = about 9Kw useable at low revs on multi pole generator.
The engine should not glaze at that and if kept close to a reasonable load at 4
to 5 Kw then you could have a happy genset that should last a very
