Carlos Santana ... last I heard of him was that nice little ditty with Michelle Branch....
Now the other I just flat out don't remember...

Whoa! The esters in biodiesel attack rubber. There aren't any esters in vegtable oil. You make them when you trans estrify the oil. I bet the mechanic guy was referring to how vegtable oil, like linseed oil, polymerises. Think of the black gunk on the vegtable oil containers behind the restaurants. ...

Julian Breem doesn't sing either but he plays classical guitar....so perhaps a category or clue would be appropriate. I like the trivia games, just this is sort of wide open.

Headache, If you find a diesel engine to start with you can convert it to vegtable oil. Or...what I have done, is simply run the generator on the truck (or in your case, bus) engine, and convert that to vegtable oil. Ezrablu My Kubota 6KW genset cost $8000, but has over 10000 hours on it already and...

Hey,
I would cut the end off the female power cord, and the end off the male power socket in the computer, skin back the wires and simply use wire nuts to join them, then cover with electrical tape.

Well then, The Toyota in the picture was the first wood fuel vehicle I ever put running. You can find its history on the thread "the story" here at Mr. Sharkey's. I had many better videos of me driving it and what not, but they were destroyed by an X ray machine at the Kuwait Airport. Ezra...

Ezrablu, I am a woodgas member. I like the group. I was a member of a bunch of other alt energy groups, etc., but I stepped away from them. With the bus group, its like a social group where we keep it light, and non technical. Its good for me to learn and practice that. I am a introverted "A&qu...
