To be scientifically accurate: you have to know the type of alcohol, the hydrocsrbon average weight of the specific fuel at the moment and the specific gravity of the bio stock.
But the generic measurement is: it’s own weight by volume & the reciprocal of the bio masses weight.
So...
Yeah- by listing the bio, they are avoiding listing the alcohol. There is a way to test it - but how they listed 5-20% is the variable, they can also have up to 20% alcohol.
So your fuel could at any time be holding 20% water.
That airplane intake manifold collapsed… I blame natural aspiration. If he had a turbo, it wouldn’t have been vacuum sucking it in but a turbo blowing it larger…😂
Welcome.
When ya get a minute, fill out the signature line with trucks & modifications.
It auto populates with each post to help us keep track of details on the rig when questions arise rather than the same questions being asked
Wow… that is one ai would never figure out. Glad you have it now.
If you ever get the chance to post pics of the install or links to YouTube videos of it - we’d love to see them.
I keep thinking to catch casting sand you pretty much need the filter before the radiator but resisting flow after the thermostat would be rough on it. Run a filter on the recirculation loop that goes back to the waterpump? That way it gets 100% of flow when the engine is cold.
Idk, could...
Soy is good base. Now ya have to find out about added ethanol or methanol. Afaik there is a requirement for a label on the pump you fill up at that will say “oxygenated X %”. Usually 5% to 10%. But idk that all states require the labeling to notify.
In the southwest- when overheating becomes an issue, removing the fan actually helps. 95% of the hummer community understands it because of the insane angle our radiators are at.
What happens is in slow traffic or at a stop light & the main fan isnot on yet- the electric fan helps. When...
The stanandyne is good. There is more than one report showing the he xpd is better.
As for his he biodiesel eliminating the need- I disagree. All the fuel testing we did on different bio fuels- it dramatically changes based on what the fuel was made from. Peanuts, peanut oil is horrible-...
I was thinking outside the body like a hmmwv/ hummer has - except might as well do dual! Here is a pic of Eric’s. Member “hummer H1” and the video I snagged the pic from.
With the db2- we can run atf as the additive. It is way more lubricating and the cleaning agents in it help more. Most diesels (including ds4 6.5) cant run it.
We can actually run off super high amounts- if you run on 100% atf it will smoke.
It used to be how ip & injectors were cleaned on...
If you put that in & don’t like the sound- you can easily diy in a muffler, a resonator, or both.
I mean, unless you want to Y split it and have a suburban with dual exhaust stacks!
YOU CANNOT GO BY “it starts”. You need to use a separate meter on the battery to see what it is actually charging.
Post a pic of the wires plugged into the alternator now so we can see whats been done.
