Yeah, I guess The judge took his word over the certified AAA mechanic that fixed the truck, so I lost the small claims case for the initial damage, the defendant also said that injection pumps only last about 12000 miles....I thought they would last the life of the engine, anyway I wonder what the excuse will be at the next court case since the pump was rebuilt ...HMMMM....we will see. At least I tried.

I did and I plan on driving up to see him and flying home after we figure out what to do with my system. Do you think a diesel mechanic of 25 yrs would know that a 30 micron filter will plug up the IP Filter ? it smells like sabotage to me !

Default veg powered systems

I saw that always ready rob never finished posting the out come of the court case .My name is Joel Woolf Pres of VegPowered Systems .Alwaysreadyrob lost in court in ventura small claims court against or company.He ran out of the court room to powt about his loss .I would never ever screw anybody intensionally never never.Robert moreno(alwaysreadyrob) shows up on sunday with the cops in his forest service outfit (thinks it gets him respect from cops)at my home .thinking he was going to get his truck without paying the balance.on the installation .I offered to replace the injection pump for $300 in labor thats cheep for that job even a discount on the pump .he wanted to sue me instead so he did and lost .Rob just purchased that truck used 259k so if you bring your truck in for a veg systemand the injection pump fails on a 259k truck is it the mechanics fault .I don`t think so neither did the Judge

yes the judge did rule in favor of joel however He still did a jipo job .. I fixed all the mistakes he made such as him using a 30 micron filter causing my pump to fail a second time because the small filter in the injector pump itself was completely clogged up ! sabotage...some one with as much experience as VEG POWERED SYSTEMS claims to be should know better but I guess not. so I still do not reccomend the so called system I got from Joel, I have since replaced his so called system for a much better one and it has never even so much as purped. I do have one more round to go with the court system for the second pump failure I just havent got around to it and I have up to 3 yrs to file so once again we will see.

So, out of curiosity alwaysreadyrob, what are you using now for a system?

This is why most guys who have mechanical injected motors either convert to an electric system or have a complete stand alone system. I wouldn't want to push WVO through the factory pump anyways, though it has been done. I would certainly expect decreased life, though it may pay out in the end anyways.

Tell us about the system you're using now. I'm interested to see what you came up with!

Bluegrass Fuel Systems, LLC - Home Im using the TF3000 it works great and there is no conversion needed, as long as you are not greedy and feel you need to use WVO Exclusively, this system works great ! I reccomend this system to anyone.....I am also going to get my wife a diesel vehicle this summer when the Fire Dollars start rolling in! has anyone else heard the threats alqueda plans to start major forest fires nation wide this summer with a focus on Montana.....that will leep the SmokeJumpers busy there. Does anyone know of a good ford SUV model that runs on oil ? Im looking for a mid 80s to early 90 that will run on oil/diesel blend and big enough to keep the Fam safe.

So let me get this straight...

You bought a "filtration setup" that you filter oil with and then put it in your main tank...

Not to sound like a d!ck, but will you be filing a lawsuit against Blue Grass Fuel systems when your truck fails again? You might be ok running a blend of WMO and diesel (might being a HUGE speculation), but if you're pumping WVO in your tank, start the countdown til injection pump destruction again. That is a **** poor excuse for a filtration setup, and even if you COULD get the WVO extremely clean and water free with it (you can not with that), I STILL wouldn't put it in my stock tank. Just my $.02
