    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    That's a good idea for waste product. As far as starting and stopping on dino I agree, except for that idea I had with the circulating pump or two, that have a bult in electric heater with thermostat, which would be great too. The only problem is that the pumps would have to be post-filter and...

    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    I'm thinking it would just be less hassle to use straight veggie oil. I've got a line on a heater / circulation system that stays at 90C via thermostat. That means with a little pre-heat, I could stop and start on WVO. Just another project I suppose. I will finish the turbo kit before I get...

    How to quiet down the deuce cab...

    That is what I was saying to you Jim when we were driving down there. I've got 2 Peltor noise attentuating headsets from my plane, and I can grab my dad's 4-way box from his old piper, and you can add music to it through an input jack.. 4-AA batteries and a 9 Volt for about 100 hours of fun. It...

    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    I will be more than happy to help you set up a small lab and the proper equipment. Most importantly, the SAFETY gear! I wouldn't reccomend making this indoors, unless it was a shed with awesome ventilation.

    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    WALLEW, sounds like you need my chemistry background. Call anytime. This procedure is called transesterification, similar to saponification. Sound familiar? Saponification is soap making. To make soap you take a transfatty acid or triglyceride (oil or kitchen grease) and blend it with a...

    Deuce won't idle.

    I know that... I just meant to ask if the engine is laggy all around. more so than it usually is. By "air" I was agreeing with the holes in lines thought. How's this: STEP ON IT POP AND SEE IF THE ENGINE RUNS LIKE IT USED TO! YEEEEE HAW!!!!

    Deuce won't idle.

    Mixture / turning up the fuel too much? Dunno... that kinda sounds like air tho. How's the throttle response?

    Anyone know who made the LDT turbo? How about bore x stroke

    I'm researching cylinder pressure data now... from what I see so far, it is only an increase of 10-13% depending on flow and charge temp.

    Help! I want my Ram 2500 w/CTD to sound like a DEUCE!!

    If you really want your cummins to scream, get a 3" short ram intake for it. That really makes the whine loud. You'll also want to cut your exhaust back to a straight pipe 3" or 4" and exit it right behind the passenger door. That's it. The longer the tube on your pipes, the quieter it gets...
