Spot on, it's just so easy to speed in moden vehicles, not indicating get my goat aswell, think it's cos we ride bikes Dean, you see so much bad driving when on the bike. -
Speed cams do not promote road safety, they make people brake harder near them and don't take into account non insured drivers, drunks, drug drivers etc etc, have more coppers on the roads, they can tell the differance between a pissed driver and someone going 5mph over the limit.

Thought you would of bought it Dean, looks a nice lite little say to hang off ya ladders:001_tongue: Reported it also. -
Can make your own for a fraction of the price though, the other thing to take into account is to make it worth while you really have to use used oil, if you use new oil (easier) by the time you have added the catylist (methanol) it's almost the same price as fossil derv. used oil has to be washed a few times, this is where the mucking about comes in.

I am Geoff, how do you repot it to flebay? -
Bio runs cleaner so you have to change filters the first time sooner than normal but after that is as per service time. fossil diesel is dirty compared to bio and running bio actually cleanes the engine and fuel lines.

I did a lot of research in to this last year and even built my own processor, it's fairly easy to make but is a bit more involved than what people think more so if using used oil but it can be done at home. the older non TDI engines run better on it as there not as highly strung as the moden engines. To be honest if you want to save a few pennies buy 20lt drums of new cheap cooking oil and pour it into the tank 70/30 with diesel and it will run ok.

very nice Dean a reet proper job that.
-
Well done both, aint arbtalk brill!
-
Great news, as you know mine ended up on flebay 6 months after it was nicked......
-
With the tractor ones Dean is it better to have a PTO with it's own pump or one that runs off the tractor hydraulic pump or don't it make any differance? looks a good bit of kit, has it been reliable and how long you had it?
-
It's called Black horrible paint and you get it from a black horrible paint shop:001_tongue: sorry cant help.
-
Some good points there Dean, there is normally 2 of us splitting and i wouldnt leave someone else on there own with it so im ok with the H&S thing. im attracted by the simplicity to be honest (like the mrs was before anyone else chips in) there seems bugger all to mess with and go wrong. what hydraulic splitter you got? and has it been good?
-
same as If your topping up with the track out when you pull em in the tank will be over full.
