Re: [biofuel] Introduction

Jean-Leon,
Just check the torque output of the 3.9 litre Cummins engine as compared to
the Landrover engine, I am doubtful whether the drivetrain of the Landrover
will take the torque increase.

Also check your diff ratios too, the original ratios may be too low for
comfortable highway cruising.

Just a thought from a mechanic who is into repowering .

 Hello everyone,

 I have just joined your list, and thought introductions would be in order.

 My name is Jean-Leon Morin, I have been interested in biofuels for a
couple of years. I am in the process of converting a 1966 Land-Rover 109 to
a cummins diesel 3.9 BT 4 cylinder. I am hoping to use the vehicle for
expeditions into northern canada,

Jerry,
As a non American I agree that this kind of what you call crap doesn't
belong here, on a biofuels list, I want to learn all about biofuels, not gun
laws in USA..
I would think that the moderator would or should disallow such postings.

 I believe this kind of crap and other politcal
 non-biofuel topics  belong on other lists if we want
 to bring more people to this list to promote biofuels.
 Stuff like this will drive many away from learning how
 to do biofuels.
   Please Kieth change the rules so we can bring
 biofuels to a larger audience. What's more important,
 OT politics or biofuels?
Thanks,
Jerry Dycus
