    loss of power

    Yeah I run my Land Rover 90 on veg oil, and frequently find that loss of performance is down to 2 things: 1. Fuel filter 2. Air in the fuel lines Hope this helps. Regards Rich

    Chassis parts

    You are talking about an outrigger. This just gets cut off, and the ones from paddock are reduced in size to go into that hole (the hole created from angle grinding the old one off). The welding doesn't have to be that great, but just go round the whole thing, just try not to melt the...
