I can't do that, I don't think... either way it's going to take some custom plumbing to make it work. I have two separate fuel systems, the stocker feeding into the front, and the WVO system feeding into the back, check valves on either end.

might talk to pgreensvt on the org. hes got a similar setup with vegistroke and is running an ADII. might be useful to figure out how youd want to set it up

Oh gotcha. I would move the WVO feed to the front and use a Y or T so you can use a standard RR. It's doable your just gonna need to use a few pieces not standard in a kit LOL

Should have went witha biodiesel setup and not WVO!

You're kidding right? That would never work for me. I'm going to assume you really aren't familiar with either process? If you were, you'd understand each method has it's ups and downs, and I carefully weighed mine before making a decision. Without getting into it, the simplest thing I can tell you is I can't run bio in my climate all year round, and WVO I can...


Interesting, never really seen such a small nozzle on a big injector like that, what's the idea behind that?

Well an AD2 is internally regulated, so my guess is that's exactly why he went with that, and I had thought of doing the same, but the quality with the AD2 seems to be hit or miss, some guys have great luck, others do not. I like the idea of redundant pumps with a pusher feeding the stocker too, but I'm just reading up now to see which way to go. Really, I don't even need to do anything since my WVO fuel side will most likely outflow any of these setups anyways.

How do you suggest I move it to the front and keep the two systems separate? I need 100% leak free check valves to ensure the WVO doesn't leak back into the stock fuel system. I'd have to do some more switching valves added to the RR system so the RR system worked for diesel only, but shut off when the WVO is kicked on...

thats what swamps put on them.

honestly,they are a awesome street injector. atomization stays nice,smoke is easily controlable. they just behave very well.

Didn't think of the return needing to be separated.. :doh:
That just seems like it would be way overcomplicated and potentially be less reliable. Not to mention there would still be fluid transfer when switched cause one or the other would still be in the head.

True. he is actually planning to redo his system to run a fuel lab pump due to his 3rd failure.

yeah theres that issue to. ad blows up everytime you turn around.

the size of the pump is the problem. they are at basically 100%duty cycle while the engine is idling.

those pump motors work their nuts off the whole 6 months they last.

Exactly. I know I've seen diagrams drawn up on how to do it, but I'd have to add more valves etc. In all honesty, the WVO side of my system should flow pretty good, the lines are large enough and it has it's own pump similar to a fass, but it's still going to be deadhead. Not much I can do about it. I guess some performance must be sacrificed in the name of cheap fuel. Maybe I'll just see what that little pump and dead head setup can do...

I'm going to look his posts up and start following along, be interested to see what he comes up with.

Exactly why I'm turning away from them now. They seemed to be the hot ticket for a while, but lately I see more and more guys posting about them not lasting.
