This week’s video is all about waste vegetable oil (WVO) or, more accurately, how to install a duel fuel system that will allow a diesel engine to burn french-fry grease! About 7 years ago I installed an alternative fuel system in my 5.9 cummins and since that time I’ve saved thousands of dollars not having to buy diesel. I’ve run this truck in sub zero temps with no problems at all.
We’re going to walk through the fuel system and describe how it works. There’s no need to produce biodiesel. With this system you simply burn straight veg oil. The system has a lot of plumbing and can get a little confusing but it’s simple in the way it works.
We use the hot coolant to heat and thin the veg oil before it goes into the diesel injector pump. This is where all the plumbing comes in. I’ll show how to build a counter current heat exchange hose and an aluminum coil to heat the WVO filter.
As you can probably tell I've got a serious aversion to debt! Burning waste vegetable oil I can get for free is just one way we save money. We're also doing a major remodel of our farm house using salvaged lumber and rough cut timber we milled on our little homestead. Subscribe to follow along!
