Use it for biodiesel production.
You will end up with another byproduct, though, glycerine, which can be used for soap making. Glycerine is also a good fire starter if you have a fireplace, burns real hot. :-)
Not the way you suggest Andy, the hydraulic outriggers will lift the truck easily, I use the boom as a counter weight to lift front or rear as needed, though. The outriggers are almost at the center, so it works like a balance.
The K-boom lets me store the spare tire at any place, in trailer or...
According to the TM, you should get 4.0 to 4.5 mpg, but that's probably loaded, so figure 5 to 6 on the highway with one driving axle (recommended by yours truly)...
It doesn't hurt to pull in, they will most likely just wave you through anyway (give you the green light).
The North Carolina stations also have "Fuel Check" signs, so don't use offroad diesel in the rare case they would stop you.
There are only two stations on that route, won't slow you down much.
With the two rear axles coupled without an interaxle differential, there are side effects when driving on firm, good traction pavement, vehicle will want to go straight and resists turning with larger turning circle and front tire scrubbing (excessive wear and cupping) as a result....

It is connected to a separate port on the air compressor, which gets alcohol vapor from the jar, which mixes with the air.
Any water in the system will mix with the alcohol and prevents ice formation (cold weather operation).
Yeah Patrick, it can be a PITA to work with and hard to find a replacement hose locally unless you go with a substitute hose (1" I believe). The hoses I found at NAPA etc, did not have the high temp spec needed to handle the hot oil.
When taking it off, it may be most expedient to simply cut it...
RE: Re: RE: Re: Alcohol evaporator & grill cover?
Started out with copper tubing, but have now gone to black 1/4" brake air line tubing. The copper seemed to be effected by the methanol and using the nylon type tubing reduces the stress on the fittings.
A pint is good for about 1,000 to 1,500...
Ususally loaded when on the highway and end up driving "by the pyro".
Empty, 60 mph is no rarity, loaded anywhere from 10 to 55 mph depending on conditions. Mostly able to keep up with traffic thru the cities, though (interstates).
The image below shows one of the extremely rare case of...
The "3108" is the elbow version of the shell and will be very expensive, if you don't need it go with the staright "3106".
MS3106A14S-7S (female) and MS3106A14S-7P (male) the cable clamp for each would be MS3057-6A....
I have the shells and clamps on hand, just not the inserts for 3 pins. I'll...
