fuel filter and slow acceleration
Well I just used a plastic jug and ran my car on diesel for 30 minutes. I did not use a filter. It is still lethargic in 1st gear. It does speed up nicely halfway from 1st to 2nd and so forth. The initial start up is like molasses. Also, I took the air filter off for good measure. Still nothing. Diesel 911 thanks for the interest in the filters. The micron rating is set when you call in the order. He can make the filters to fill your size. IE 4 inch diameter by 9 inches long. The filter that I use is of course for the vegetable oil. I clean it with a garden hose. The filters are rated to a certain large air pressure psi for cleaning. I have put gasoline in sometime and shaken it. But, all it really needs is the garden hose and a good shake to get the water off. Diesel911 I hope you do stop in and visit him. I think these filters have a future.
Fellas, I hope someone has watched the youtube videos. My car is really slow. I have ordered the drip tube. If this doesn't work then I am likely to get hit in the rear by a mom mom racing home for Wheel of fortune. Hope someone can help. Thanks again, Goldveg
