Hello, .. im Quebecer, please forgive if my english can make Sir Patrick Stewart grimace...
I'm just about to purchase a diesel van a 1996 Toyota hiace van.. I was told , possibly on this forums that if I want to drive on waste cooking oil without any vehicle modification, I can just use 50/50 with waste coconut oil... Make sure the vehicle has a mechanical fuel pump and indirect fuel injection , well this hiace has a 1kz engine with a low pressure indirect diesel injection, so put 20 L of diesel and 20 L of very filtered coconut oil and just drive off ? Anything else I should know ? Other than carry a spare fuel filter at all times.. thank you for all your help in advance..
Oh and boiling the cooking oil at home isn't a good idea since all cooking in my location is from LPG (oh sorry i reside in the Philippines)
should I put both the diesel and waste cooking oil in another container and try to mix with some sort of mixer ???
the individual that suggested to do this trick is from AUS and hinted that i should go with Sangyong Musso possibly 2012 because it has a replica of the W124 engine from the 85 mercedes 300D....
i really would like to do this sans modification because i am poor
the musso has a IDI... not common rail... and it has a mechanical fuel pump.. unless im super confused.. the 1KZ engine has both.. mechanical fuel pump.. and low pressure IDI... .. seems identical.. just got to have a spare fuel filter on me at all times.. and im okay with that.. im kind of plannning on dumping 20L of gas station diesel into the fuel tank and then dump 20L of filtered waste coconut oil into same fuel tank.. just not sure if i should premix or not ... maybe the Assie got fed up with my over analysing everything....
this toyota Hiace is ideal because i intend to visit many of the 7641 islands of the Philippines.. and camp out in the van and not shell out 20-50$ a night at some hotel (me poor remember ?) and yes im aware that Philippines is hot and being inside a van wont be comfortable.. the AC is on full now and im still not comfortable
your valued opinions please
