Seen those not sure if I like them will be concerned about the temperature don’t think they are controlled automatically. The ones on ebay say 65c and that I think is about 140 degrees seems a little warm to me for bio diesel even. Believe these are actually designed for the WVO and WMO...

That is the filter I have on hand that I was thinking of swapping with the leaking box filter that is in the m1009. One reason is it has a fuel heater that I pretty well need because it runs on biodiesel most of the time.

I couldn’t find any previous information on this but has anybody installed a 6.5 diesel fuel housing in the m1009. I have one that came from a 1994 van and I also have the intake but not sure if I want to install that just for a place to mount the filter housing. My factory housing is leaking...

I found the tm about adjusting the door, I am guessing the front fender needs to come off? What it looks like is the door was taken off for possible fixing a dent in it due to it has some bad bondo work on it. I can see the original marks were the hinges were and the stricker is of also. The...

I was concerned about the lower temp for the tygon think I read was rated for 185 degrees. I got some viton but cant find 1/8 tees locally so I have to order them.

I am thinking of going the viton route its rated at 400 degrees. Do you think the tee idea is better than going to the other side and tying the two sides together?

Thats a good idea instead of running a hose across to the other side. Not sure if a stainless 1/8 barbed tee is easy to find, but I would think brass is ok. I am a little concerned about tygon since the max temp to me is a little lo for being so close to the manifolds. I looked at the kits on...

Question on the return line cap. I run 100% biodiesel in the m1009 pretty well all year except for the cold months. Anyway that return line cap keeps giving me grief this is the third one in say a year and a half that has broken on me. I am taking a guess this material is not compatible with...

Update well its on the road again but noticed the second start today after it sat for a couple hours the idle was lo and sluggish for a minute or two then all is ok. Hopefully just trying to get all the air out of the system we will see tomorrow.

spectre6000- Searches vary quite a bit for the cfpp of soybean biodiesel and those are from 25 to 32 degrees f, but I am getting cfpp mixed with cp. I will try and do some testing put some in the fridge that is at 40 and go from there.

You are correct this issue was all my fault not the vehicle. But I have learned alot from this issue people say to keep some room in the tank if you are using a one tank system and you can put a large amount of diesel in it if and when the temp drops drastically. On the amount of fuel...

Feedstock is soybean oil, I make it myself and it was worth asking if you had any information. I found some information but thinking I should try some testing on my own and see if it matches those findings.

Even with switching to diesel in the winter months savings will be at least 200 a month average for me.

Spectre6000 do you have any information on the CFPP testing information done based on mixed diesel #2 and Diesel #1? So on this issue used my electric to pump out 20 gallons of fuel, and the fuel looked good. Truck was inside garage with a electric heater by the fuel tank all night. The tank...

You might have something there but I think its not really the engine because my 7.3 idi uses the same type of rotary injection pump as the 6.2, and a mechanical lift pump. The differences I think would be the filter housing and how much fuel returns to the tank I ran across a posting that...

Yes there is biodiesel in there the whole time please be kind with the remarks for that mistake. Last year a 50/50 mix did ok but this year i didnt get it to that point and some unusual cold snaps hit out here so I would think it gelled up on me. Thats what you get for trying to save cash on...

Well did it again she is in the garage I believe the biodiesel is gelling up on me in the tank figured I had enough diesel in it. Also the ford had problems today the dang fuel filter drain started leaking real bad when it rains it poors. I am charging the batteries will do a flow test then...

Ok thanks for the info I did replace three lines the one to the filter the one from the filter and the little one on the IP looks like there is one under the truck also. Shouldnt be any gas in it unless someone is doing a very bad trick on us the test fuel I had didnt smell like gasoline at all...

Well got some good news its moving down the road, put everything together and started good but at first kinda sluggish. Then noticed the diesel ping/clatter was getting loader and loader after a few minutes the idle got faster and it would accelerate just fine. Took it for a spin and all...

I have a feeling the lift pump went bad any possibility it took the IP with it?
