I finally did it!

Well I finally did it. I got the 300D running on WVO this weekend. It wasn't the easiest job I've done on the old car but it looks like it was worth it. I did a two tank conversion, main tank on dino diesel and a 18 gallon auxillary tank on WVO.
The hardest part of the job was plumbing the switchover valve with inline coolant type fuel heater without cutting a single line. When running the switchover occurs smoothly with nothing noticable other than the car runs smoother and quieter on WVO and the smell out of the tail pipe.
Now the test is how reliable the system will be over time.
