Auto Manifesto: February 2008
http://www.automanifesto.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
February 26, 2008. Loremo Poised For Success. Of all the so-called green cars that are projected to reach production within the next 2 to 3 years, I think the Loremo (Low Resistance Mobile) has one of the better chances of actually making it to market. Finally, they’re planning on being in the Automotive X Prize competition. Hence one possible motive for developing an electric version. Electric power is one of the available energy sources for the competition. Posted by David Nguyen at 8:09 PM. The articl...

Jetta TDI Running on WVO: 8/1/08 - 9/1/08
http://kungpaojetta.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Saturday, August 09, 2008. What is this stuff in the Vormax? Car is running good - hence no new posts. One thing that has been around for a few months now is this stuff at the bottom of the Vormax. It's not the same stuff as I mentioned before as this looks different and does appear to be going anywhere. The only thing I can think of what it might be is is dissolved solids - now obviously undissolved. For the ...

Jetta TDI Running on WVO: 2/1/10 - 3/1/10
http://kungpaojetta.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Saturday, February 13, 2010. 93, 657 miles - emergency tank added. Checked the system today with the exception of the Vegtherm. The VOcontrol won't turn the Vegtherm on unless it is closer to the switchover temp. The other thing I noticed with it is that if the car does a smart start - starting on veggie from a quick stop the Vegtherm doesn't turn back on. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Jetta TDI Running on WVO: Small tank = warm diesel
http://kungpaojetta.blogspot.com/2010/01/small-tank-equals-warm-diesel.html
Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Sunday, January 03, 2010. Small tank = warm diesel. The other issue that complicates this is that as I drive over the course of the week the quantity of fuel is reduced (obviously) but that makes it run hotter as there is less fuel to be heated and recirculated.

Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Monday, June 29, 2009. Laying the parts out. I'm hoping to have more detail as I proceed with the install. One thing I found is that during both installs there are many trips to the hardware store and orders to Mcmaster.com. It seems even with most things figured out it is still trial and error for me. Some notes about the video. Sunday, June 28, 2009. Prep, Prep, Prep . . . and more Prep. The wiring harness (...

Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Sunday, March 08, 2009. Gone but not forgotten. From the start I wanted a TDI wagon but in 2006 when I started down the WVO road they were even more expensive than now. I also didn't want to spend a fortune on an " experiment. So I opted for the lesser expensive sedan. There are two big reasons and one small one I recently purchased a wagon. 2) It's an automatic so my wife feels more comfortable driving it.

Jetta TDI Running on WVO. My experience running my 2002 Jetta TDI on waste Vegetable oil (WVO). Sunday, November 01, 2009. I was finally able to throw the switch a couple days ago on the new system and after a few hiccups with the VOController I can report all is good. I shot a bunch of video during the install so if i ever get the time I hope to upload my install experience. I feel this system is more robust then my previous system and is based on my expreience with. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Life wit...
