    Vacuum Super Sucker

    Greetings, I made the mistake of asking Mr. Google what a super sucker was... :!: Don't think that's it. Is it a vacuum body to be able to recover WMO/WVO, then pressure off? An air compressor for suction/pressure? thanks

    CUCV Bent connector inside half of the firewall plug

    But there is no DH mod on that one... :D I've sent the member a PM. Here's to hoping that it solves a couple other gremlins that have reared their ugly heads.

    CUCV Bent connector inside half of the firewall plug

    Since you've helped me establish that replacing the harness may be my best option, I feel less hesitant about separating the existing one from the fuse box and trying to straighten or replace and reinstalling. Good call on the connector kit. Much obliged for your time and knowledge.

    CUCV Bent connector inside half of the firewall plug

    Old wvo

    Maybe a testing kit will save you money in the long run. A titration test should let you know the amount of fatty acids in you WVO and provide the amount of neutralizing agent needed (lye), if you so choose to. Such as: http://www.biodiesel-kits-online.com/titration-test-kit.html

    Recycled oil

    Beyond biodiesel, my pleasure. Glad it offered another possible answer to the the question stated by the OP, which was an interesting approach I thought. I also look forward to trying this method, see what we can come up with. I agree that the technology or equipment needed for vacuum...
