This is the reason why I bought my 93' 7.3. I've done reading and searched around but I'm looking for information right from people that have done the conversion themselves. I'm going to build this system myself in order to save money and learn more about the details of the working system. Not to mention I think the pre-packaged stuff is overpriced for the sake of simplicity . But I am very new and need the details on what exactly is needed for a working WVO system for the IDI Fords. What parts did you guys use, the best routing, things to avoid, ect. It would be really awesome if you guys could draw up a sketch on MS paint or something similar with the fuel routes, valves, solenoids, ect on how exactly you have the system working on your truck.
I don't know much of anything in detail about the workings of WVO systems. Just the very basic concept behind it. Basically the WVO needs to be @ 160 degrees in order to flow properly...180+ degrees is best though. It's a two tank system, one dedicated to WVO the other to Diesel. You start the struck on Diesel until the WVO warms to approx 160 degrees then switch over... what needs to be used here to do that?
So if someone could give me a rundown on the process and the steps for the system with the parts needed for each step that would be great too. Im just trying to understand fully how everything works and the order in which.
Here's a quick diagram of a truck with the engine and 2 tanks... If you want to use that to sketch how your system works.
