WVO/Biofuel Heat Exchanger


Recommended Posts

If you can find a supplier of WVO & filter it yourself these setups can save you a fortune in fuel costs. This alloy block comes with all wiring needed which will be labelled for ease of fitting. £50 plus P&P

Pictures can be seen on ebay

i tried wvo in my truck and it f**ked the seals up on my primer after about 3 weeks so i changed the primer and it hasn't run the same since.went to a place where they run big generators on the stuff and they had to change all the pipes from steel to stainless so that should tell you something. :thumbs:

Done 6000 miles in my jeep mate with no problems. Depends on the pump in your motor, the older pumps work best. Change your filter more often & it does clean your fuel lines which you can see when changing the filterafter the first 200 miles. What was the WVO you were using, did you filter & dewater?

yes filtered it but not dewatered because i didn't know how to do it.but i tried new oil as well but didn't make a difference i also put 10 litres of oil with 20 litres of diesel.how do you dewater yours cheers. :thumbs:

Using a heating element in a steel 45 gallon drum. Before I used the heat exchanger I still could get away with %60 veg %40 diesel in the summer, then using the exchanger I'd use 50/50 in winter & 90/10 in the summer. Alot depends on the pump, newer pumps are too efficient.

it might be a common rail diesel in your motor and they dont like veg unless you seperate the glycerine or heat to a simlar viscosity to diesel
