CHENRY and others with the svo conversion .Are you picking up VO in cubees? If you are what are you doing with all the boxes and plastic containers?

I don't run it myself, but i imagine they can be taken to the recycling yards around town and droped off.

I know of a couple of guys with conversions running around locally and they just use the containers at their own shops or give me to guys that need them for used oil - recycling is also a good idea.

I do collect it in cubies. This is the simplest way i could find to collect it. You can either take the empties to recycle - PITA - or take them back when you go to the resturant and put them in there trash dumpster. I put them in my trash burn barrel sometimes and sometimes i take them back with me to the dumpster...depends on what is more convinient that week - I get about 10 per week so if they are stacking up and in the way, it takes about 5 minutes to burn them in the barrel.

I also keep a few extras for when i want to carry extra vegi o a log road trip, i can put filtered WVO back in them and carry an extra 50 - 100 gallons in the bed of the truck.

What is coking? What can be done to clean the fuel system other than pull all fuel lines, pump out tanks, and clean strainers, pull injectors and clean or replace?

I have been running waste veggie and either got a bad batch or the stuff if eating the rubber lines up. I talked to a fuel guy here (who works for a truck shop-diesel) said that running veggie would deteriorate the fuel lines and plug system. The cost of his shop doing cleanup and/or replacing injectors will be $2000 to $3000. Is there a repair manual or CD that can be purchased on the 1997 7.3 powerstroke?
and broke

truck runs rough stalls misses and quits. filter has been changed.

bclark it's time for you to talk to CHenery as I believe he might just be this forums WVO Guru.I know that if you are running formulated WVO that this will start cleaning builtup deposits from diesel fuel and start plugging things up.this could be one of your problems or a contributing factor.Sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck.
