[Vwdiesel] Miles Per Gallon

[brian hoeft]

I run a straight veg-oil 2 tank setup. I prefer my setup the way i have it
with filtered veg oil taking enough time as it is to process. Biodiesel
would be nice but until i find (or find the want) time and will to go that
route so I could use 1 tank only, im quite content.

besides the extra effort going into Bio-diesel, a good local source on
potassium hydroxide isnt cheap and theyre a**holes but thats my own issue.
Buying it online and having it shipped, like pot. hydroxide and other
chemicals from time to time get pulled from "the list", but DHS wants to
know whos buying acetone for example like they once did PH. remember were
supposed to be afraid, arent you?

regarding the algae fuel, your on your own, to me its logistically
unfeasible, and I barely have enough time to tend to my herb gardens amongst
all else.

and as for HHO, BTDT and am very disappointed in myself for getting involved
with BS con artists like D*nn*s L** who I wont openly ostracise until
contract terms expire.

im not a great typer, so to be concise.. proponents of HHO ignore (or are
ignorant to) the nitrogen in our atmosphere and the nitric oxide that is
produced when introduced to HHO making long term use in our current int.
comb. engines impractical and irresponsible.

I have gotten incredible fuel efficiencies for short times in EFI gas
engines and prolonged efficiency (w/HHO) in pre mk3 diesel but stopped that
as ive found it to be in error.


Straight veg with your own switch to a solenoid is my setup and suggestion..


if you want me to elaborate on something else let me know
