No probs Echidna, I work at TAFE and recently discovered their online acronym buster - its about 10 pages long. They must have an internal dept that just makes up things to keep themselves employed. TAFE runs on acronyms (probably like most govt depts):)
Hi Pirasea
Bio diesel is fine i ran my 200 series tojo for 2 years on it then sold it to get a RR so i could create a semi type comp truck due to no air bags and easy mods on already top set up from RR when it comes to articulation at least. any how i was making it my self at a cost of around 28 cents a ltr, cleaner then the stuff from servo and all the bi product makes graet fertalizer the veggie garden goes crazie on taste Quontaty and size of produce its verry easy to do and does not take much of your time only about 10 to 20 minutes a stage and you can get back to every day things between stages. you will have to change fuel lines to nitrol ones not that hard or that costly as bio is a bit ruff on rubber you all so will find your engine oil is cleaner between services, smell at rear is nicer not like fish and chips like you hear. final out come looks like beer i never had any isues in winter only thing i did do was run 2 fuel filters and used an adaptor to run Z9 oil filters as they were only 5 dollars a pop change fuel filter set up as a back up and much cheaper than tojo filters.
Cheers
PS if you are interested my system is sitting in the shed doing nothing as RR is 3.9 petrol/gas cost set up $2600 but if you want make an offer paid it of in less than ayear have instructions as well.
Thanks for your advice Macbac. Sorry I didn't read it earlier when you'd replied. I'll keep your offer in mind but at this stage it's down on the priority and spending list. Got a few more important issues such as shocks and suspension bushes, noise insulation, front brakes and other bit and pieces to sort out first; but will definitely keep it in mind. The missus tends to think I'm indulging whenever I suggest spending anything on the def so I reckon she'd go ballistic if I suggest a bio system at this stage. cheers gerald

This is not realy the thing to encourage as some busibesses with tankers have gone around securing most of the "used oil" outlets. So it is getting harder for an individual to source a private collection. But if you do you can run 50/50 filtered vegie oil and diesel in just about any pump all year round hot or cold. That's been my experience for the past 7 years anyway.:)
