The finishing touches are being put on the interior, and the wiring is done. Right now, the fuel conversion process is at the forefront. Refitting a diesel engine to handle waste oil is a matter of replacing the fuel pump to handle different a viscosity, installing a heating element to keep the oil flowing, and keeping contaminants out of the oil. So far about half of the physical conversion is done, and the final decisions are being made about the best fuel lines and heating element to ensure reliability depending on the quality of the oil we can expect to find out on the road.
As soon as the engine is in working order, more detailed pictures will be posted showing exactly what we had to do. Stay tuned!
