lets see if i can remember how to do it ............

Four-letter word - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The word t wat has various meanings, dependent upon regional dialect. The word's main meaning in British English is that of idiot or stupid/idiotic/tasteless, generally towards a male person. In American English—and understood elsewhere, including Britain—the word is a vulgar synonym for the human vulva,[1] vagina, or clitoris, and is used as a derogatory epithet.

snigger snigger

but what about the white spirit?

Good for drinking ....

I don't care what all the sceptics and supposed scientist think they know. My 2.5TD is running on WVO from a Thai restaurant, that is filtered cold through a pair of jeans and a 5 micron sock. This is then left in a settling tank for 1 month in my green house. This helps the white gunk settle to the bottom. I then pour that straight intot he tank. No Bio-bollocks and dangerous chemicals in my house thanks.
I also buy SVO from any supermarket or Costco when I see it cheap and stick that straight into the tank. And once in a while when I feel flush I put £10 of derv in to thin it down when it's cold. Int he winter it's 50/50 mix of WSVO/derv. This time of year it's pure WSVO. With a set of motorcycle hangdlebar grip heaters wrapped around the fuel filter to help thin it down a bit.
Big Blue Bus is running fine after 3,000 miles of this.

Convert it to Bio-diesel????? WHY?????? More cost, more complication and definitely dangerous.

excellent post!

Can you suggest a source of handlebar heaters?Do they need to be the pad type elements or can you jig the grip type to work,maybe around the pipes in/out of the filter?And would a 12v immersion heater element in the tank/strapped to the filter be safe/do the business?I like your style patman!!!

You don't need any heaters. Simple as that.

Indeed. Mine's on 100% svo at the moment can't tell any difference.

Interestin, me tank's just about empty from a 50%ish mix and am planning on filling with 100% SVO, i guess that answers the question "do you think it will work ok?"...if it doesn't, what is likely to be the outcome and what would you recommend i do?

oddy it will work

if your still not sure just half fill it with svo and carry a can full of derv round with you just in case you need to reduce the mix - but you wont

Ace, that';s what i was thinkin - but if it gets stuck will i need to empty out all the filters etc...

aah what the fook, i'll give it a go - ordered in bulk from Asda the other day so now have a fair bit in the shed, might as well go for it!

Will let ya know - look out for a "help, stuck on bodmin moor with a spluttering 200" fred!

if it elps yer sleep at night bring a couple of fuel filters with you, and fill them with derv if you change it (if it gets blocked) - not that you'll need to

Cheers Sean, will give it a go tomorrow and report back! I know it's fine on 3/4, it's just that bit extra!

Oil be surprised if you dont look quite slick when you are puffing smoke and hiccuping and farting.
Watch out for hazards you dont want to get battered.
If anything happens it may be an act of cod.
All this advise seems like a red herring and that is afishull

So what is the likely outcome???

Ello Shocker, where did you pop up from and why aren't you with us on the SLAPPER does???

Joe DP did me engine change for me - where abouts are you, i guess you go there too?? Am just down the road!
