    check engine light went out

    2001 dodge mini van 3.3 E85, I bought a number of years back and the check engine light came on, it coded out for O2 sensor, the 3.3 has two of them and the hardest one to get to was the one that went so I said the hell with it and drove with it for YEARS without any ill effect, I ran...

    I'm back cooking again

    I'm using a griddle inserted sideways in the drum. I put it on slow stir and monitored the temp. it took about three hours to go from 40 degrees to 140. From there I pumped it into the mix tank that has a drum heater, poured in the meth/KOH and mixed for two hours, I drew a sample and...

    Has antbody's Bio D cook attracted law enforcement?

    While surfing I saw this http://dailycaller.com/2013/10/16/police-smell-meth-raid-home-kill-80-year-old-man-find-no-meth in a nutshell they thought they smelled a Meth cook and ended up shooting an eighty year old innocent man. After that I read this...

    run WVO in the summer and BioD in the winter, other than that I ain't got nothin, just a question, how come OK has higher pump prices than VA? last time I was out there I saw all those well pumps going. I was thinking next time I'm put there I'll bring my own fuel with me. my mistake...

    Shutting down my operations

    there are three major WVO collection companies and numerous WMO companies as well, I did a lot of area canvasing and my best results are clubs and churches for the WVO. I don't like working with WMO, too nasty and health issues. I plan on getting proper equipment this winter with my extra...

    Shutting down my operations

    I work in a plant that has a cafe and they're good for five gallons a week, local churches and civic groups that have fish fry's or turkey fry's and co workers make up half and I purchase it outright from another cooker down the road a ways.

    Shutting down my operations

    I'm making BioD, I was dependent on sunlight on getting my veggie oil up to 130F with the aid of a drum heater belt. I can only batch 30, gallons at a time. everything I'm using is some sort of jury rig or compromise so this winter I'm going to try to ramp it up to at least 50 gallon...

    Winter's Coming

    did some experimenting, I put a jar of B100 in the deep freeze, Minus 5F, and in an hour it was a block. My next test I used a 10% clear kerosene and it stayed liquid, clouded, but liquid. I figure I should easily manage 20F nights with a block heater.

    Shutting down my operations

    Sams Club has Diesel at 3.48 a gallon, it cost me from 1.35 to 2.35 a gallon to make which I'm going to have to cut with kerosene anyway in a couple of months and I have about 80 gallons made already. Not worth the time and labor at this time, at least when it goes back up, and it will, I...

    6.5 NA Mileage

    I like my Vdot truck, thinking about buying another one and let my daughter have it for her first car, I just replaced the intake manifold with EGRless one from Leroy. I think it made a difference in mileage and performance. Nothing dramatic but if it gets to 60MPH a little better and one...

    Runs but stalls why????

    All my woes were self inflicted, I would be hesitant to by any used electronic devices I only go used if I have no other choice and I'm using a fuel tank made from a 35 Gal chem tank from Tractor Supply that I have bolted to the bed covered with a tool box
