Hi vdubnut62,

Yeah, I know.  I love watching the mainland weather.  It's probably the main reason we immigrated to Hawaii from Seattle.

Hey glort,

What all do you mix into the WVO to get it to work in the low 40s?  I just dumped five gallons of chip oil with PUG thinner into the Isuzu along with about 5 gallons of biodiesel on top of about 5 gallons of dino.  I'll be smelling sweet for the next 200 miles or so.

Glort, does direct or indirect injection have much bearing on ULP mix percentages? It seems to me that timing would have quite an effect.  I have always been
pretty leery of too much fuel blending, I guess I'm afraid I'll blow the head off something..or worse.
