How the hell would we know? You think we gather statistics? I ran my TDI and '82 Merc 300D for a calendar year all on my own before we sold the Merc and backed...
I am setting up a 250 gallon super sucker. I met a guy that used the truck's vaccumm system thus not needing an external vac. I only use the truck to pickup...
A few points: 1. Never run you pump while sucking oil or driving around. Set up an isolation valve between the pump and the tank. You get oil in your pump and...

The vacuum of an engine is between the throttle plate and the intake valves. A diesel does not have a throttle plate, the engine control is by amount of fuel...
Good Day People, In my opinion, this person appears to have been spamming his "Free energy made easy" site here for the last month. Like the diesel secret guy...

I think I found a good way to remove water. All my oil's are stored out doors in 5 gal buckets outdoors with the NY state winter. I needed some buckets and was...
Sounds fine to me except for the upper temp limit of 170. You don't want the WVO to get higher than about 145 since the methanol will begin boiling off. I...

Dave, Why did you need to weld the black pipe? I use an in-line, I used yellow tape on the threads, works fine, no leaks, I use the rubber gasket that came...
All this talk about inline heaters made me think what if?? External tank to fuel tank to injector pump. If I had an external 100 gallon tank, inserted a...
