Veg Oil conversion Kits
Posted: 18 May 2006, 19:22
Right,
I went on my course a couple of weekends ago and I've gained some good knowledge, though not comprehensive before I get labelled the 'guru of grease'
How much would people be willing to pay to share a bit of my knowledge? The course cost me £125 plus £250 for some a conversion kit (which to be honest was bl00dy expensive!!) so I want to recoup my costs but not rip anyone off - and I don't think I can become a millionaire off this one
How does £50 sound - that is the main part of the kit and people source and buy their own fuel pipe, water pipes and a relay?? (only because I won't have the time to sort these out and they are the easy bits to buy). I'm also planning on editing the film I shot whilst on the course and this hopefully will be available as a DVD end of June for around the £10 mark - I need to add a few bits to the footage I've got to make it more complete and relevant to our vans.
The kit is universal for almost all non turbo and Turbo (not Tdi, Hdi, SDi, CDi) engines - old stylee indirect injection as opposed to modern direct injection) and YES, you can still use diesel.
The kit enable a diesel van to run off used or new vegetable oil (WVO or SVO) but also still allow the use of diesel without any need for switches or 2nd tanks - this is a one tank system.
How does it work?? Veg oil is a bit thicker than diesel so ideally it needs a bit of pre heating before it gets to the fuel pump. This kit uses am electric heating element to pre heat when the engine is cold and a heat exchanger that uses hot coolant from the heater when the enigne is up to temperature - The kit is very easy to fit and only takes about an hour to fit.
enough spouting from me - any comments, add them. Any questions, same thing. If I do get enough interest then kits will be available towards the end of June because I have my exams and a well deserved holiday to get on with
Let the frying begin
