I don't run DRLs but appreciate the response.

 

I can almost feel the smoooooth ride!

 

The first 6.7 Vegistroke prototype mount coming off the laser.

 

Interesting. Where are you going to mount it? Somewhere on the frame?

 

Mount from the bed.

 

Copy that... Easier to access and will stay cleaner.

 

Under the bed like a Fass.

 

Comparing emissions (Diesel vs Cooking Oil vs B100 vs B5)

Our testing showed that emissions from the biofuels were the same or better than from regular diesel by most measures. None of the four fuels generated significant amounts of carbon monoxide. Cooking oil produced less smog-causing NOx than regular diesel, while our B100 produced a little more.

Hydrocarbons are related to smog formation. Cooking oil and B100 turned out to produce slightly more hydrocarbons than either regular diesel or B5. HC emissions reflecting unburned fuel and cooking oil racked up 14 parts per million and B100 put out nine ppm. B5 and regular diesel produced only 3 ppm each. Since the Connecticut limit on HC is 150 ppm, all far exceeded the requirements.

Particulates. Particulates are a concern with diesel engines. In Connecticut and some other states, particulate content (aka soot) is measured by the opacity (cloudiness) of the exhaust smoke. It's expressed as a percentage, and the Connecticut state limit is 20 percent. All four fuels had a much lower percentage, though B100 and cooking oil produced less than the B5 and standard diesel.

NOx. Cooking oil had the lowest oxides of nitrogen emissions, while B100 had the highest.

CO2. Carbon dioxide is considered a major contributor to global warming, and CO2 emissions are the same no matter what liquid fuel an engine burns: about 19 pounds of CO2 for every gallon of fuel. But advocates claim that the CO2 from burning biofuels is offset by the plants absorbing carbon as they grow. Critics dispute that claim.

More CO2 creates more greening of the earth. More greening of the earth, more plant life to absorb the CO2. They take this global warming stuff to the level of a zealous religion. But I'll argue that science is not a majority...

Sorry... Hijack over. I know the real purpose was to compare combustion products of the different fuels.

Carry on please...

 

Time for parts!

 

New bumper.

 

New gauges mocked up.

 

Which PIDS you plan on watching on the iDash?

 

EGT, Trans and engine oil temp. Not anything with DPF 🤣

 

Nice response wise guy!

Old school with those mechanical gauges there but more accurate though. Is the fuel tank gauge for the veggie tank?
