DSE anyone use this?
 

I found this page on the web trying to find an alternative to petroleum diesel that is easy. Has anyone heard of this system or even use it? http://www.dieselsecret.com/index.htm Thanks in advance.

This is nothing more
 

than a way to transfer $39.95 from your pocket to theirs. I would bet the farm that what they are selling is plans for making Bio. Find the same thing free all over the web.

They say from VEGETABLE oil, and not bio. It's probably a thinning agent to add to the heavier viscosity of veggie oil.........any other guesses?

Bio
 

is made from veggie oil.

THat website took them uh....how many seconds to build/post?

So am I getting that nobody is really familiar with this?http://www.dieselsecret.com/index.htm

i especially like the ClipArt logo

Hedwig,

First time I have seen anything about DSE. Looks very interesting.

THey say no lye or methanol is used so it can't be Bio Diesel.

I sent them an e-mail. Lets see what they reply.

P E H

I bet they just grabbed some stuff from the net after 5 minutes search..slap it in a word document and blam sell it on the net.

The clowns on Ebay that sell the propane injection plans did that....a huge waste of time and money.

bump, because I want a cheap alternative but don't want to deal with lye or methanol.

Looks like the additive is some sort of a SVO thinner (apparently not corrosive enough to melt plastic) but it sure looks a lot like Power Service ;)

If you don't want to deal with either of these, maybe Straight Veggie Oil Conversion is in your future...

The lye/methanol is really not that big of a deal....

Ok
 

I checked out the site. Not bio; but read between the lines as if you were checking out an ebay listing.

Be interesting to see what PEH gets in reply, but it sounds as though their product/system just alters the viscosity enough to make the wvo flow in reasonably warm weather. A 20/80 dino/wvo mix will probably do the same thing.

Do the math - .09 for their additive, .37 for the dino (1.5gal) = .46 per gallon.

Thanks for the replies. If anyone has more info I would love to hear it.

I Found the Answer
 

On the Frybrid site. One of the members there ordered the "kit", here is his post ----

"Well, it just was too good to be true and just had to try it and see what it says.

Basically the manual tells you to buy a Walmart plastic garbage can a couple of pumps and a couple of household water filters, hoses and fittings. Install a Goldenrod filter in one for water removal and wa-lah your system is ready. Actually you also add Kerosene (10% ratio), unleaded gasoline (5% ratio), some Diesel-Kleen+Cetane boost and the magical/miracle potion (DSE) and then pump in your tank. Its pink in color and smells somewhat like paint thinner.

I have a friend who is a lab rat and will take it in for analysis. Out of curiosity, I'm going to mix a small batch up and see how it does in the fridge and then the freezer. I'm still scared to put it in my 2000 Dodge Cummins. It also has a chart stating that it is good to 30 degrees. Add 5% more kerosene for every 10 degrees colder. Blow is the mixing ratio, you guys are the gurus out here. What's your opinion?

20gal filtered WVO, 2gal Kerosene, 1gal unleaded gas, 15oz Power Service+Centane boost additive, 3.5oz of DSE mix slowly for 5 minuets and put it in the tank."

It appears that I was off in my previous post where I guessed as to what the formula was....It's hell to get old.

Cheers,
Jim
