converted my duramax to WVO..... FREE veggie oil!

[metalman69201]

How many of you out there are running straight veggie oil in your Duramax, and how are you keeping the computer cool? Do you have a schematic or diagram of your system on Vegoil, and does anyone know where I can get a diagram of the stock Fuel System for my 2002 LB7 Duramax?

To be honest i dodnt know there was anything the fuel was used to cool until recently. But if im not mistaken I also read that it was done away with in the LBZ Dmax. Im with you tho, id like to have a link to some good diagrams, I dont have the time to pick it apart and put it back together.

Hey Leucious, how much info have you been able to gather on a Duramax conversion? Do you have any pictures or diagrams of one?

Thanks a lot,
Bryan

I use a proccessor kit, from Biodiesel Kits - Biodiesel Processors - Making Biodiesel , you pick up the WVO ,take it home, i pre-heat and pre-filter it in a 55 gal drum and a pair of levi jeans, so it pretty clean when it is put 40gal of WVO into the processor, then put a certain amount of lye , mix good, let settle, then drain off the dark gunk on the bottom, then you mix about 8 gal of methanol with it, then you run it thru a good filter into a Storage drum, you have about a total of 1hr hands on time and takes about 14 hrs for the total process, you'll have around .50 cents to .90 cents a gallon in it., you can run 100% or any mixture with regular diesel. over 12,000 miles and no problems..
