There is no conversion of anything mechanical necessary. You can choose to advance the timing if the fuel pump 3 to 5 degrees because the fuel burns slightly slower, if you are burning only biodiesel and not mixing fuels. You should also follow the washing procedures ( bubble washing works best ) to control the pH and to allow the methanol to escape, this will protect your fuel lines and injectors. -Arthur ----- Original Message ----- From: "paddle van" <paddlevan@yahoo.com> To: "Arthur Sauerhaft" <kivka@EARTHLINK.NET> Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 2:36 PM Subject: Re: Any of you own the biodiesel burner in the shop at Colma?
