[biofuel] Biodiesel processors
Hello everyone, I am at the point we I need to make a biodiesel processor. I have been throwing around the idea of using a used electric water heater. I believe most of them have a conical bottom, that will aid in seperating the fuel. I plan to obtain one and have the top of the actual tank cut off at a welding shop. Has anybody out there used a water heater as a processor? Any pitfalls to look out for? If so what other type of containers are people using for there processors?

[biofuel] Running a Mercedes on WVO
Hello everyone, I have just purchased an 1981 Mercedes-Benz 300TD with the intent to run it on WVO. I see that in the workshops that are being put on here in California, the "Grease-Car" Kit is the system of choice. Is this system the hands down choice for the running of WVO in a Mercedes? After reading through "From Fryer to Fuel tank" it sounds like putting together my own kit might be quite intensive. Does anybody have any experience rigging up their own system? If so any pointers would be great. In regards to running biodiesel to start up and shut down the car, would it be suggested to switch out the rubber hoses in the fuel system right away or down the road? I seem to find different points of view on this issue. If so does anybody have contact information to locate synthetic hoses? Thanks for any information you can provide.

[biofuel] Soap "Floaties" in Biodiesel
Everyone, I made some small batches of bio-diesel about a month ago. Now when I look at them in the clear containers there are white "floaties" in the fuel which I believe to be soap. Is filtering the best way to remove these particles from the bio-diesel? If so what inexpensive methods would you recommend and where to look for the supplies to do it?
