Car runs fine on the home-brewed WVO, last weekend I had a problem...lost the turbo-power, drove home the last 15 km felt less than a 200D. Appeared to be the main filter that had lasted for 13.000 km that was the cause, after changing the filter I got back my rocket Not too bad I reackon, my 207 stopped after 2000 Km when changing the fuel.


Before the winter I at least want to check the strainer in the tank, and probably the fuel line change it from 10 to 12 mm, also the heat exchanger will be fitted under the bonnet.

Together with this conversion I willl also change some of the old "gardena-style" fuel lines together with putting in some helicoils for the intake manifold bolds. In the past I think someone torgued them too much. Might as well change the glow-plugs as well, just preventative.

But first coming friday I willl change my condensor to get the airco working again. Visited a indy/forum member 2 weeks ago and discovered that this was the cause for the malfunctioning.

Cheers,

Ingmar
