Beetle died

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

The conversion to veggie oil has been done for a while now. If anyone has any questions or would like pictures of anything, please ask! They will be posted within 1-2 days if anyone asks.

The beetle died while commuting. The problem was that the fuel was too low. It sloshed around and it sucked in a bunch of air. The car was towed home. A brake bleeder was used on the fuel pump line to pull the air out of that. After that, the injector lines had to be cracked to get some of the air out and it fired right up. It has been running fine since then. So if you do the conversion, don’t let your vehicle get too low on veggie oil! If somehow you do, vacuum the air out with a brake bleeder.
