I have looked on the data base for bmw but only 2 people have entered their details about their cars- Can a R , S , T, V plate BMW 525tds run on a single tank set up with wvo.I have seen it mentioned on the forum but not sure which model , also can the 530 same reg also run on wvo for a single tank ???

Yep I know this one has been banged to death before but here is my scenario anyway all comments gratefully received. We have a '97 2.7tdi Nissan Terrano with a Bosch 'copy' pump running single tank with 50% processed WVO (1 micron) with 50% dino. Now as Winter is approaching I have decided to trial a Bio Tuning FPHE to preheat the fuel. Never had any problem in the previous 6 months but...

Using the pricechecker thing, its now £1.72 at all 4 for sunflower oil, and £1.62 at Tesco and Morrisons for rapeseed oil. So is it pricefixfixing, or pricefixing? SVOLOCH http://www.riddleme.com/html/cow2.html

anyone know if the older p38 range rover with the bmw engine will run on wvo? which fuel pump has it got? and is it direct or indirect injection?I'm guessing it's the same engine as the old 5 series(round lights)? Also what about the disco tdi's (90-98)? (need a 4x4 for towing) Thanks in advance, Loz

I've had a maybe offer of WVO palm oil. Thing is the chippy owner filters it and reuses it again for frying for about a month. Will this effect my use of it, I'll just be filtering it. ...Andy... --------------------------------- What the deuce! --------------------------------- Merc.

ive recently built my own simple filter system out of things i had lying about and i have filtered a batch of oil to a very good standard it looks very clear but dark which i guess is normal for waste oil nothing i used was a rated filter so what i want to know is if i pump the oil through a cheap inline fuel filter from the local motor factor am i right in thinking if it don't get stuck in ...

After a few weeks of gathering information from here and biotuning Mike I finished my conversion last weekend. Its a '98 Peugeot 306 D-Turbo with a lucas pump let me know what you think. Any thoughts about when I need to get it MOT'd?? [Edited on 9-10-2008 by benallenuk]

Hi there, I want to fit an HE to my Merc 300d before it gets any colder. Can anyone tell me which coolant pipes I need to cut into and where they are in the engine bay? Need to make sure I get this right.. Aparently the pipes to the Heater matrix are not good as only get hot when in car heater is on. My plan is to heat the fuel between the lift pump and main fuel filter...

Well i have rung and asked just about every one within my area. And i have been told either . They will get in trouble if they don't send it back. They are tied into a contract. I have rang the people that deliver it and they said no. The company have told me they must have it back. I'm starting to get annoyed by this, i try educating them on the phone but its like talking ...

"ouch nasty" i dont even want to think of that happenning... due to my setup where it is, the house behind would get a few inches flood right on there front door step! ive seen the rain do it... errr scary...

I have always been of the opinion that a HE is unnecessary, since by the time your coolant has reached temperature to sufficiently heat your veg oil (therefore time to switch to your veg tank), your IP will be hot enough to accept cold veg oil anway? A hot IP will be just as an effective exchanger of heat. And if it's the pumping of cold oil through the fuel line that is the ...

Hi, ive been using wvo for a while now and most of it i buy off a chap that is supposed to be filtering it properly but its left the fuel system with a coating of fat, its blocking the filter in the tank and under the bonnet and the tank needs cleaning, is there a way of me heating the tank from under neath and letting it out of the drain plug when liquid. Ive tried draining it and putting...

Recently a batch of oil came out rather cloudy even after being settled and pumped through the standard 10 inch filters. I have put this oil through a bed sheet filter and back into my drum and it is crystal clear, it seems therefore that a bed sheet filter is better than cartridge filters at removing suspended fat... How good are the cartridge filters? Toyota Estima Emina, ...
