Please visit our website at http://www.goldenfuelsystems.c... few weeks ago we were lucky enough to have a client bring in a rare diesel vehicle for us to convert. Most people may have never heard of the Unimog made by Mercedes Benz. However, it's quite arguably the Swiss Army Knife of the all terrain vehicle world.Charles Anderson, President of Golden Fuel Systems goes over the custom straight vegetable oil conversion which was done at our Headquarters in Springfield Missouri. Also in the shop at the same time was an H1 Hummer which was having a custom conversion later in the week.

So far the Unimog is running on vegetable oil very well. If you have any data on the incompatibility of biofuels and the PLD system feel free to share it with us. All of our data so far shows no problems running on SVO.

That's a common misconception. Although some people think the exhaust from an SVO vehicle has the faint smell of food, it doesn't smell like french fries. What ever the smell you might think it smells like, it smells much better than the exhaust from burning diesel fuel.

Following it would be like like following a french fry machine!

I doubt if the PLD system is compatible with biofuels

It's great to see you guy's working too put renewable, clean burning fuels in our vehicles! Nice job on the Unimog as well!

It depends... If you're just crossing short rivers the oil inside of the tank isn't going to wick away enough heat into the cooler water to raise the viscosity the the point where its too cold to flow unrestricted to the engine. Now if you plan on being submerged for very long periods of time then I could see that possibly being a concern. But you should be fine for short river crossings.

Can you still cross rivers in it? I know the oil needs to be hot in order for it to run, but i would think that the tank being submerged in water would cool it too much. That's awsomet that theres a unimog in Oregon. lol, I live in Oregon!

unless you wanted to build your own hydrogen fuel cell.

That is amazing, great job and I hope you post more videos.

That's correct, you can only run a Diesel engine on waste vegetable oil. Check out our website or call us at our free 866 number if you have any more questions, we'd love to hear form you!
