Bio Diesel............ ............................TOP STUFF
unknownmanxman:
Apparently rapeseed oil makes the best bio-diesel. But mine is made from waste oil (WVO), i get better MPG from running straight bio diesel and didnt have to modify the fuel system at all, my engine runs a little hotter but thats normal apparently. The Tax on the biodiesel i buy is 25p a litre
I run it in a 200ti 90. Apparently you cant run common rail diesels (i.e TD5) on it!
Although the performance stats for biodiesel are no different for normal diesel, im sure my landy goes better on it!
Miniman:
Yes mine defo runs better and is alot better MPG. I also think its smoother the engine. It took a while to clean the system but now its top. Anybody tell me who runs a td5 on it. I have a mate who is running a commonrail diesel on it. So maybe its just some different types of motors which dont run on it.
extreme90:
i get it for 60p from alison racing by me :twisted:
only coz he no's me usual price 86p
Miniman:
The big question is. Does he pay the tax for you or are ya just getting it tax free. If ya getting it tax free then if ya get pulled you will be done just like you was running red diesel. Always get a recipt.
Garth:
MINIMAN you missed one off your list
When the diesel engine was first developed the original concept was a non petrochemical engine (I may be wrong but the design brief was from Hitler at the start of one of the WW's) and the result was the diesel engine that ran on veggie oil.
The engine has been re-designed over the years to run on heavy oil with input from certain compainies
