Fuel Fluidity, Mix and Temperatures.

Personally I think 90/10 Veg/Petrol is to much.
My car wouldn't start today and it's quite mild out. I'm sure it started better on 95/5 Veg/Petrol.
I think the petrol is causing vapour locks in the injector pipes, also my idling is really rough too.

A friend of a work colleage has bought an old Pajero and was asking me the ins and outs of veggie, he olny gets 20mpg on a good day, so he should benefit big time from it

Think the old Mitsi engines are fine on veg too. I remember someone (possibly sav) mentioning a Delica on veg

He has read in he Pajero forums that it's ok, but he wasn't sure, so I gave him all of my knowledge on it,

I am using 95% Vegetable oil / 5% Petrol and it has been great so far, actually running better than 50% Vegetable oil / 50% Diesel, it must be the petrol that is thinning the Vegetable oil

My current mix of 12.5 / 87.5 % unleaded / Pura is not as good as my previous 7.5 / 92.5 % unleaded / Pura (both after 3 days standing)
As the Wolf's figures show ~ the temperature (ie. weather) plays a big part too.
Got to get myself some Veggie-boost too, I think.

Been towing the trailer tent with an unmixed 80/20 veg/unleaded although I forgot to take my veggie boost with me. The power loss without the veggie boost is noticable but not that bad as long as you keep the right side of 75

Very interesting experiment.Just one question what damage does veg oil do to the fuel pump exactly?
