Sorry Matt,
Things have been rought here. I just lost my job and in the midst of exploring other areas. I do enjoy your articles.
Thanks,
Dennis

mate, your garage is a fucking mess….

I believe that the potential exists that small manufacturers will satisfy the need for biodiesel sooner than the big corporates. The answer here is decentralisation.

I also believe that the quality of fuel being produced will in due couse be formalised and legislated.

The solution would be to invest in a processing unit that is capable of not only supplying your fuel needs, but one that you are confident would produce a product which you (and your friends) are happy about putting into their vehicles.

The Dry Wash process makes this possible. It also saves time and money; and is now available to the back-yard operator too! Check bioman.co.za for more info.

the cost of this bio diesel sounds good but see no mention of the cost of electricity in MS its damn expensive???

When i started using alternative diesel i used the DSE system,I heard gas was not good for the diesel combustion so left it out then heard that the secret additive was moth balls and paint striper so left it out I am now using a 1 part
diesel to 5 part veg or waste engine oil run it through multi filters it works just fine there would be environmental questions about the engine oil but the veg oil should be super clean .I personally don't have long term proof on the
harm to the engine but have talked to people that have been doing it for yrs with no problems except better mileage and more power.

I used DSE as directed by their manual, in my 2006 Ram 5.9L Cummins diesel. When the engeine was cold (in the summer time in Florida)the engine would shake and knock really bad until the engine reach 180 degree F. I had to replace 5 of my 6 injectors. I was using virgin VO in my mix. If you plan on keeping your engine running say as far away from this crap as you can. I emailed people all over Germany and no one ever heard of theses guys or this secret crap (I'm tring to me polite). I did hear of a group in England by a different name selling the same crap and was either shut down or was run out. Remember if it seems to be to good to be true, 9 out of 10 chances its wrong. Save your money run SVO or process your WVO in to Bio Diesel.

Blimey, thanks Foster. That just about says it all!

Larry ,
so what your saying is that when you fill your fuel tank , you put 1 gallon of diesel and 5 gallons of veg oil ? No addittives?
I have run the bio diesel in my 2000 superduty before ,and was very happy with the way it ran, but the place where i get it is just as costly as going to the fuel pumps! I see these DSE guys and it does sound too good to be true!!!

Have you seen this recent development?

Greetings Fellow Seekers of Truth,

As a younger man I went to trade school to be an Automotive Technician. I had tinkered for years. More out of necessity than desire back then. After 2 years in technical school and another 8 years twisting a wrench on what seemed like everything with (and a lot without) wheels, I found myself getting up in the morning and going to work every day in an automotive emissions laboratory. Calibrating all manner of analyzers and what not I can't remember anymore. Running the EPA's FTP's and coast-downs most nights. Back then I'd tested almost every Rube Golberg POS "amazing invention" there was available for a government study. My information is admittedly dated, but last time I bothered to check, the "gizmo-scams" hadn't changed and neither had Chemistry or Physics.

Bottom Line: If it sounds too good to be true…….

As I see it, that's the TRUTH. I did the math.

does anyone know if you can use the same 1 gallon petral to 5 gallons of vegie oil for home fuel systems? We are looking at about a 1200 dollar a mo. fuel bill this winter, so if any of you have any info or data it would be great. Thanks.

I wouldn't recommend it. Not in a million years. Petrol (aka gasoline) is incapable of combustion complete enough to keep CO (Carbon Monoxide) from killing everyone in the building if used in for home heating. There is a reason that most emissions regulations require a vehicles tailpipe emissions to be below 200ppm CO. Not coincidentally, 200ppm is the LD80 (Lethal Dose for 80% of any group of test subjects) for Carbon Monoxide. That's why it's rather difficult to commit suicide running a late model car in a confined space like a garage.

It's better to be cold, than to become cold. Don't do it.
