a buddy of mine with a slick 73 220D called me yestarday and asked my opinion about love crafting his machine.. ive read in forums here that it might not be the best idea.. the dude at love craft in portland quoted him 400 dollars to do a "conversion" that would hook up an additional existing tank that my friend owns to a two tank system.. after reading love craft it seems like they are set on one tanks which seems naively californian. (pardon me state of jefferson) he wants me to go check it out with him, which i will but will also sway him to just doing whatever he needs himself!

seriously it would take an electric three switch valve, some hosing, a water heater element, and another inline filter to mimic lovely's "conversion"!

understood that SVO isnt too swell for an engine due to more free fatty acids acting as abraisives, but someone clue me in on some factual reasons why love craft is a sham. I run biodiesel that I make through my 300D and aside from more frequent filter changes its fine (so far). I dont see the point in paying for some "conversion" when i know i can do this for him..
