300D engine type
Hi, I'm a french Canadian that moved to the Philippines.. please forgive me if my English isnt UK perfect....
im lookijng to find out the last IDI engine in the mercedes 300D line up.. im thinking somewhere mid 90s... BEFORE common rail...
if your thinking that i wanna do WVO, you are probably right... . i mean.. Philippines is hotter than the devils butthole.. and the 2nd fuel pump is mechanical i believe... might as well..
thank you and merci

i should add there was a 1983 mercedes 200D near the capital... but the lift pump was not functional and neither was the AC.. also. it got sold
so im looking at.. mercedes smart fortwo cdi (just checked the cdi has a fuel rail)
toyota fortuner with the D4D engine...(as does the D4D engine)...
i mean if i could id get anything with a cummins engine... but.. nearly impossible to find that in this beautiful country

and if it isnt too much trouble... this question as well
what year was the last IDI engine used in a 300D ? or 240D... or 200D.. bigger isnt always better... i just want it to run on wvo for minimum 12 hours without stalling..
reason being... on the boat where vehicles are being transported from island to island.. i believe i am permitted to remain seated in my car.. and omg, AC is a blessing in 30c + weather...
if i would be back home in Montreal, i would rather freeze than consome 1-2$ a L petrol... in winter...
using FREE wvo that only took a few calories to poor into a micron filter (cant boil the water out because the locals use LPG stoves to cook food... i was told that i should have many fuel filters (with water separator) in the car.. and something called bioKleen .. 1 bottle for every 20L of wvo.. to eliminate growth...
anything else ? pass wvo through clothing and a micron filter.. i have 400 mesh.. i will work my way up to 1 micron naturally...
let the wvo sit somewhere for a few weeks and dump it into the fuel tank..

okay.. ive decided to purchase a Ssanyong 2000 model year musso... and after thoroughly filtering the wvo.. i will premix 50/50 amount of wvo and diesel... and i will run on this method without the need for any overpriced kit
sorry but i dont agree with 2000$us for a 5L tank.. 2-3 hoses, a switch and a relay that will switch from wvo to diesel input....oh yeah.. and an oil heater i imagine
in case you arent familiar. the 2000 ssanyong musso uses a mercedes 6 cyl inline diesel IDI engine...(they also sell a rexton which is also a candidate but it is bigger, costlier and difficult to find)
since this thread has zero responses, i will just ask a nice moderator to delete this thread and i will keep looking for help elsewhere...
take care and peace to you all o/
