![]() Nice thing about them is the fuel temp sensor in the pump which adjusts timing accordingly- perfect for an alternative fuel. It's still working perfect after 3 1/2 years of daily driving with ZERO problems associated with the engine fuel etc. One of my first conversion was my 1998 Jetta TDI which is sold to a very good friend. The early TDI's before the Pumpe duse] were perfect for WVO. All the money i have saved would more than pay for a new pump and injectors.Īllsierra123 wrote: I hear its ok with the TD's but you have to be very careful with TDI's Just on one trip last year, it cost me $2 of diesel to drive 2400 kms. FWIW, I have a copy of the self-study manual for the PD130, VW says 100% biodiesel is "recommended". SVO/WVO isn't worth the hassle and broken bits down the road. Homebrew is another story.some good, some terrible. Westyventures wrote: There's nothing bad about quality biodiesel. I had someone come to me that he had converted himself and he needed it mostly for climbing big hills I converted one pumpe duse and it ran fine without it. I have never used any on a VE injection pump vehicle and none ever needed it. It will change the internal pressure of it and will change timing and fuel management. Make sure the WVO is filtered and dewatered, do or have the best quality installation and you will NOT have any problems.ĭo NOT use a lift pump before the injection pump. If the tank, filter and lines are heated and you use additional heating just before the pump, use good quality fuel hose, etc etc. Don't use animal fats and try to stick with canola, corn or peanut ,but not soy. Like any other fuel, quality makes all the difference. I have converted about 32 vehicles in the past 3 1/2 years and had very few comebacks and 98 % were because of poor WVO issues. I converted my 1990 transporter 2 years ago/ about 25,000 kms and not had one problem. Other companies went directly from IDI to common rail, VW has finally followed. Not sure, but the PD was the brainchild of VW and lasted only a couple years before it dead-ended. Karl was that for all years or just some models There are a few PD Vanagons, but keep in mind there was an issues with premature wear of the cam$haft in these. I had a 130 I had planned to install in my highroof Syncro, but suddenly remembered why I like my fully-mechanical system so much better.

There's nothing bad about quality biodiesel. And I have paid the price, as have many of my friends, not everyone does, but. Walbro FRB-11 is the pump I would use, ~7 PSI.īt I would never run WVO in any VW diesel, or Bio more than %20, and I have run about 1000 gallons of B-100 through my VWs. Search ebay for WVO pumps or a diesel lift pump. but I don't know what the specs (especially PSI) should be for the fuel pump.Īnybody know what kind of fuel pump I can put in this? As usual - I prefer to spend the least amount of money - I'll probably look for a used part if the money factor in the way. The strong recommendation has been that I should put an additional fuel pump (lift pump)on at least the vegetable oil side. I have a 1982 Vanagon that has a 1.6td diesel swap into it.and I'm converting it to run also on vegetable oil. I'm not sure where to post this - so I'm posting it on this forum.
