Burning the Midnight Oil: VW banks on diesel for the near future
By ROGER HART
VW plans more diesels next year, but for now you can get one under
the hood of a New Beetle.
VOLKSWAGEN'S DIESEL SYMPOSIUM
One of my customers for biodiesel is a musician. He decided to build a new
recording studio behind his house. First job was to excavate for the
foundations. Being a Brit. and careful with money, he hired a small digger
and had 6 friends come round with wheelbarrows to shift the surplus earth.
Bill: If you prefer to make popcorn with it, here is another method:
A large pail of hot water from the tap; poured over the injection pump,
injectors and lines.
That'll get you started in about 2 minutes.
Of course, we also offer the VEG-Therm and VEG-Therm Lite (16A max
current draw) if
It was 15 degrees yesterday, so my unconverted ( no fuel heater) 240D MB
with B-100 wouldn't fire up.
I noticed a old hot air popcorn popper in my goodie parts pile. I put it
under the engine and went back to finish my coffee. 15 minutes later the 240
fired up like a summer day.
Cool!

Greetings and G'Day,
My name is John Irvine of Glen Innes in NSW State, Australia. My
work addresses the twin concerns of Environmental problems caused by
the use of dinosaur resources and the impending crisis (next 20 to 40
years) due to the finite source of the said dinosaur resources.

I asked you what you based this information on, not asking you
to just repeat it as fact.
How do you know this?
It contradicts some others' findings I believe.

My understanding, and I've been told it's in the patent literature
somewhere, is that the reverse reaction is slow. But you can
actually get it to happen on a liter scale if you work at it hard
enough, and homebrewers have talked about this elsewhere.
The fact that it is slow is used to

As far as the wash-water's concerned, water hyacinths quite happily
eat the first-wash water, methanol and all, clean it up nicely. Well,
actually it's a mix of water hyacinths and two types of duckweed,
about both of which there's much good information to be found at JtF:

Maria,
You didn't get the same answer.
You received an answer that explained that the difference in energies of
reactions - one to combine methanol with a free fatty acid and another to
recombine glycerol with a free fatty acid - are worlds apart.
If that response is not sufficient enough in
Maria,
When you speak of reverse reaction, are you speaking of converting
biodiesel back to a glyceride, or are you simply speaking of a second
reaction taking place where the new biodiesel product is then converted to
soap - what has frequently been called back cracking?
I was trying to wash
Does anyone know if turpentone can be used in place of SVO/biodiesel?
It was prodused in great quontities out of wood.

If it is in fact running hotter, you could use a water injection system
to cool it down (and also increase efficiency a bit)

Keith,
It is so many who does a great job in sharing, Yourself, Girl Mark, Todd,
MM and many others, that both are vocal and silent. This is your profit and
it is huge and rewarding. It is the only way to get a movement in the right
direction going.

I have the oppertiunity to get lots of WVO for free. I don't own a

a way to burn WVO I could take care of all my heating needs. Does
anybody have any
Keith et al,
I cannot explian why it is so but a compression engine is not the same
as an ignition engine, meaning that in a diesel leaner means cooler,
richer means hotter.
So this may go to explaining a few things.
Also wear as a product of conbustion temperature is one thing,

I thought that the problem with excess methanol is that it's an
atmospheric pollutant- that when we compost glycerol or
somehow treat or release any wash water that contains volatile
methanol, the methanol evaporates into the atmosphere and
does some sort of damage there. I think someone
You are extemely wrong when you say that heat causes more
