Diesel Filter Water Warning Light

PS My son and I successfully fitted the second fuel tank to the Navara and it all works fine to our great surprise. Not sure what the response will be at the next rego check when the guy sees a fuel gauge inside the left rear wheel arch whioch is only activated when the parking lights are turned on!
Biodiesel from cream
Good evening Australia. Hope you’re as good on making biodiesel as you are in playing cricket and rugby. I’ve discovered on the internet that I can make biodiesel from butter. But now I want to know if I can skip the butter part and use the milk cream directly to make biodiesel. I’ll appreciate any…
Fondue fuel makes Biodiesel!!!
It is not as clear, but it is Biodiesel. Black glycerine on the bottom and clear bio on top. The problem with this is that is takes alot longer. It took about a week for the seperation to take place. I don’t think it is a high grade of bio but it does work. cheers, dan

New oil, use as SVO or make bio?
I have a batch of new but tainted olive oil. Should I make biodiesel with it or use it direct? Should I make biodiesel with my worst oil or use the good stuff?
300D … thinking out loud
Hi I have just purchased a 300D and moved it to BD about 700 kms ago .. all is well :). I know that BD is hard on “rubber” seals etc through the fuel system. As I would like to prolong the life of IP etc, and I have the gear to setup a 2 tank system .. would it be useful to purge with diesel…

I know that BD is hard on “rubber” seals etc through the fuel system. As I would like to prolong the life of IP etc, and I have the gear to setup a 2 tank system .. would it be useful to purge with diesel at the end of every trip (so everything is cleared of BD and sitting in diesel).
I will probably set up a 2 tank system for winter anyway (later) so that I can contiune to use BD
Your thoughts gents

Frytol solid oil - what can you use it for?
Hi, I have come across 2 restaurants which have 44’s of used frytol oil going begging. Can it be used as a blend to make it liquid? or is it only good for BD production? I want it for SVO conversion. Thanks Doug.
Thanks
Doug.
