Exclamation Update

Ok Here is an update>>>
I ran a test to see if it was going to work with a lot of safety precautions and yes it did produce diesel... I now need to work out a few details and work on getting it working more effeciently.

Ya I'll be down in CS for the first official burn my diesel event.

But seriously are you going to have the product tested before you burn it or just burn it and see how your truck does?

I think I am going to sneak it into a friend of mine's Ford IDI and see if he breaks down! LOL... hahaha
I haven't decided to have it tested or not yet. I started it up yesterday with fire extinguisher in hand and let if run for an hour. It took a while to get going so like any impatient agressive idiot I started trouble shooting and messed it up... It did make some diesel (1/2qt) but I was hoping for a better test... I am talking with the designer and working out what I could have done wrong....
I think I figured it out. I will know very soon.

Hura... I got the plans in 2 days... But he has been away from his computer so that is probably the deal.. That is why I did not test it again today.. I needed more information.

I am convinced that this is going to work after I get the bugs worked out... So if you are interested in getting the plans, the designer (Michael V) is great with support and he will plug you into a group of people from all over the planet building these things that can help you with question.
I wish I could get into more details about the project but I signed an agreement not to.. I just wanted to let everyone know that there is a different method out there besides WVO SVO BioD and Mixing waste in your diesel.
If you do buy the plans I will enjoy sharing info that I have learned on the private network.

As we wait for OilGuy

Hi Guys
This is a soap opera only way more exciting. I think the plans OilGuy bought may be similar (albeit maybe not as complex) to this: a refinery

http://science.howstuffworks.com/oil-refining2.htm

The seller on ebay still hadn't re-listed as of a little while ago-
