Impressively Ugly
I'm kind of piecing a WVO setup together as things go on, slowly working my way up to hopefully something that'll run me through the Ohio winter even.
The last couple days it's been a little cool (58-63*F) in the mornings (leave the house at 5am for work) and I haven't switched to my rear tank (WVO) for fear of it being too cool and the stuff being too thick (this morning when I briefly switched my "Fuel Filter" light came on and went off as soon as I switched back to B20). I don't have any problems at all running it on my way home from work when it's warmer (80-90*F) out.
Right now my setup is just to take it from my 55 gallon drums at the chinese restaurant and pump it into 5 gallon buckets via a 10gpm hand crank pump, then I use the same pump to pump it from the buckets through a 10 micron GoldenRod fuel filter and into my rear tank...then it runs through factory from there.
My first step is going to be to add a couple gallons of B20 to the rear tank to thin it up a little for the cool mornings, but I'd like to start adding stuff so I can run it (at least a 50/50 mix) in cooler weather as fall and winter approach. My first step was going to be to wrap the stock fuel filter with a coolant line similar to what's seen here, but I just wanted to make sure that would be ok to do as regular diesel will be heated when I'm on the diesel tank? Aside from that as weather mandates and time allows I was going to add another coolant wrapped filter specifically for the WVO rear tank and then add from there.
Also, anyone know off hand what size the coolant lines are I need to T into?
I'll have more questions I'm sure as I go on. Many thanks to all those of you I've already talked to and have helped me
