Re: A negative report regarding SVO

JT,

The way I interpert the report is that the author was/is heavily influenced by the bio-diesel industry. In which SVO/WVO will definetly hurt that industry. I know that greasel or greasecar sells the conversion kits so that would make you THINK they might be biased but, how long could that hold up before word spread like wild fire and customers came forward with MAJOR problems. The author of the report stated that the glycerins in the SVO were akin to putting sugar in a tank, dunno what you think, but sugar in a tank is INSTANT problems. SVO doesnt seem to be showing those results so far?

And as far as an independent test, I dont know how much more independent of a test you can rely on than one run by the end consumer for 50K to 100K miles. I am like you too, I want to do the conversion but have been hesitant to do so as of yet. Im still waiting for the jury to weigh in as well.

Mike
