Is there a recipe out there that will allow me to convert solid waste vege oil into a usable biodiesel? I can get a reasonable amount of this stuff for free,...
The process already covers solidified oils and fats. Just administer heat to ~120*F. ... From: "Neil" <miggles@...> To: <Biodiesel@yahoogroups.com> ...
I thought this might be of interest to the BD community. Lets give them some good ammunition to use with the vehicle manufacturers. Of course, they don't ...
Just warm the solid oil until it turns liquid. Then react as per instructions. For the easiest method of making your forst few batches of biodiesel you can...
are there remote controlled airplanes that use diesel engines? if so would they be able to use biodiesel? im still looking for a cheap engine to test my batch...
Here's a link to a news story about connecticut's biodiesel co-op and some others in new england biodiesel. They mention biodiesel co-ops which is pretty nice,...
Most model airplane engines run on a mixture of methanol and Nitromethane. And equally "most" of those engines are TECHNICALLY "diesel" engines, because they...
[b]waterdreamer36, there are model diesel engines[/b] They typically use a mixture of about 1/3 kerosene, 1/3 ether, and 1/3 lubricating oil. It is actually...
The model aeroplane engines are diesel, but don't run on a fuel you would consider diesel. They are called diesels because they use compression ignition only....
All Model airplane fuel I have ever seen was a mixture of Castor Oil, Methanol, and various quantities of Nitromethane. I have never see either Kerosene of...
Interestingly, there are some. Because of the thinner head on the motor, running biodiesel can have a tendancy to burn them up. Check out one at Progressive...
I'm interested in finding a really good 12 Volt electric pump for collecting waste veggie oil. There's very little out there that I could find. I purchased one...
When I was a kid, there were two main types of model engine, glow and diesel. In the USA glow engines were by far the most prevelent. Diesel engines were more...
Here's some info on R/C engines cross-posted (with permission) from the Northwest Biodiesel discussion list. It sounds promising! I'll try to make the next...
My favorite thus far is a 2000 GPH Rule bilge pump. Remove the mesh screen and leave the strainer bottom. 10' of 1.5" PVC from Mcmaster.com reaches to my...

I'm looking at purchasing a vehicle that has been converted to SVO with a dual-tank Greasel kit. Problem is, I don't as yet have a steady supply of WVO nor...
It would be your better bet to not run the heaters in the same tank that petroleum diesel is being run through. The flash point of petroleum diesel is ~140*F. ...
I've read the Peugeot warrants up to B30 in their vehicles. Except for Neil's '82 Peugeot turbo diesel (Message #5513), anyone have any experience (or hear any...
Hello Terry, Just to clear up something. Flash point is the lowest temperature at which the vapour of a combustible liquid can be ignited in air if there is an...
There is no reason you could not put dino Diesel into the grease tank once the heating is turned off. The usual method of heating is from the engine coolant....
I think that you will find that 'diesel' RC engines do not run on diesel. They are compression ignition engines (and subsequently inherited the term diesel in...
If as the last posts suggests that the conflict is with the filter media in the Racor fuel filter, I'd suggest running a different filter. Heating the Dino...
I think that you have some good info so far. I am puzzled by the Greasel "warning" about using diesel through a the Racor filter though..since these are...
You might find it cheaper to get an old V-Dub diesel to experiment on. I just bought a complete running (not well, but running!) '85 Golf for $50 out of a...
Hello, just to add my two cents. As I understand it you can get screens for Racors LFS-60 brick filter in 10 and 5 micron sizes. I don't know about the smaller...
