That farmer who owned the truck should have just given it to you for free. I've never seen such a nightmare under the hood.

Everything has price. If they didn’t want to spend money than why look? Now days 1st 2nd and 3rd gen trucks are 50,000. So? Idk how much he invested into this truck but I’m going to watch it now. So it’s a steal for me. 5000? That’s a fair deal

2:18, looks like some sort of homemade heat exchanger/ shutoff system to allow used cooking oil to be used as fuel. For this to work, the diesel engine has to be warmed up in order for used cooking oil to be used. They probably had both fuels hooked up. When the diesel engine warmed up on the diesel, the diesel fuel was turned off and the cooking oil turned on.

@theetravisb Год назад

That’s a crazy system. Kind of curious to see what it was like when it was “working”

So iv worked fast food for 10 yrs now, One thing I would NEVER EVER run fryer oil in my motor, its absolutely death. When that oil drops below 85 degrees it turnes into glue!!! Solid state glue!!!! My job is cleaning the flyer tanks and pumps, we use an industrial cleaned called contender / meriatic acid it will eat your skin but not metal! And heated pressure washer. Its the only way to clean it off. So I could only imagine what a diesel motor looks like after not running for a while...on cooking oil. What a mess

@TheOnlyBlackInMeWasWillieBrown Год назад

That's a homemade heat exchanger it allows you to run veggie oil. You run the truck on diesel until it's at operating temp. You flip a switch, turn on the auxiliary fuel pump on the firewall, and it will pump veggie oil the the heat exchanger thinning it out so it can be burned as fuel. You then turn off the diesel fuel pump and run on the veggie oil.

@gordonstroup882 Год назад

It just might be that the nasty vegetable oil gummed up the valve guides, and the piston rings.... 🤔? Drain the oil, leave the drain plug out, then spray a ton of brake clean down inside each cylinder! Wait an hour, then crank it over about 6 to 12 revolutions, and maybe it will push out all of the gunk, and hopefully free up the rings in #6 cylinder. OK, back to the video!
