110/111/112 Sedan, SV0/WVO parts

We have recently been getting more requests for product catatogs. We decided to deliver. Our first product catalog specific to SVO kits and products is finished and ready to ship. This will outline all our different conversion kits as well as list individual upgrades you can make to an existing conversion. It will also show you individual components you can purchase if you want to build your own system.

The other buyers guides we are currently working on are Diesel Engine Performance Products Guide and Top Mercedes Weekender Projects (key jobs you can do at home on a weekend). Stay tuned for more to come.

These 3 illustrated manuals will help you quick start the process of converting your Mercedes diesel to run on free fuel! Stop going to the pumps!

With diesel fuel approaching $5.00 per gallon you cant tell me you are not interested in this subject. I know you may have lots of questions. To begin you must decide if you really want to do this!

If you have been contemplating either converting your current Mercedes diesel to run on free vegetable oil or are considering purchasing a used diesel to convert, then I highly recommend you purchase my complete set of 4 manuals before you head out on your quest. (the 5th book pictured is our SVO product Buyers Guide and is included free of change) The information contained in these illustrated manuals and guides could save you hundreds and possibly thousands of dollars.

As I have said elsewhere on this site, fuel injectors may be the most neglected maintenance item on the older Mercedes diesel engines. Just because they are working does not mean they are working well. And now with the cost of diesel fuel creeping up to $5.00 per gallon this is even more important than ever! You can work on your injectors yourself. It is not difficult, but you are going to need the right tools. I have put together this quality but inexpensive tool set for those who want to tune-up or overhaul their injectors on their own. If you are running SVO in your diesel you MUST take care of your injectors or your diesel will not take care of you. This tool set includes the following:

If you run or plan to run B20 to B100 biodiesel or SVO / SVO blend (straight vegetable oil) I highly recommend you do not count on just your factory filter to provide proper filtration. Our Stanadyne FM 100 filter has a much larger capacity and better water separation capability than the factory filter. This will give you better filter life and better performance over a longer period of time. This filter is much easier to change on the road and less messy that the factory filter. It fact it is the easiest filter to change of any of the competition aftermarket filters by far. No tools are required - only the twist of your wrist! It has proven to outperform any Racor Fitler on the market for less money and less hassle!

If you are installing a dual tank conversion in your Mercedes you are going to need a way to allow the hoses to enter the trunk somewhere. The best way to do this is to use a hole saw to cut one or two round holes in the spare tire will in bring in the coolant hoses and/or fuel hoses. The hoses can be protected from chaffing with tape and then sealed with Silicone to prevent water and dirt from entering your trunk. Yes, I know these hole saws are not meant for metal - and that is why you need this cheap set. No need to dull your expensive hole saws. Once or twice on metal and the saws are done. But then you wont be using all the sizes in this kit so you will end up with extras for future wood projects around the house.

Have you been trying to find the right hose kit to upgrade your current WVO conversion. I know you want something that can handle biodiesel when you run it and you want something that can hold up to your boost heater. You also want to get rid of your ridiculous barbed fitting and cheap hose clamps that keep cutting into your fuel hoses!

Now you can order this kit and solve all those nagging problems once and for all! This kit contains:

This is the super fuel hose we have been waiting for! Finally a hose that meats all the needs for running, gasoline, ethonol, diesel, biodiesel, and heated SVO in less than ideal environments. There is nothing else like it on the market today.

Now you can buy it in any length you want! Order here by the foot. This is the super fuel hose we have been waiting for! Finally a hose that meats all the needs for running, gasoline, ethonol, diesel, biodiesel, and heated SVO in less than ideal environments. There is nothing else like it on the market today.

Here is an inexpensive set of cleaning brushes that really get down in the crevices. The plastic one is good for exterior cleaning around the window and body trim. The brass is good for cleaning engine parts you don't want to scratech. The steel one is excellent if you are doing some rust repair.

This guide will walk you through the process of finding the right restaurants for good waste cooking oil (WVO), approaching restaurant owners, protecting your sources, setting up a collection and settling station, and proper ways to filter and pump it into your tank. If you have ever thought about convertingto SVO, the first step is to secure your source(s). There has never been a better time to start. This short illustrated manual by Kent Bergsma will get you up and running quickly.

If you are going to work on your diesel fuel injectors you are going to need a torque wrench. If you are going to tighten your alloy wheel lug bolts properly you should use a torque wrench. In fact if you do your own work you should have a 1/2 inch clicker torque wrench in your tool box. I know why you don't have one. They tend to be expensive for the limited amount you might use one. Well, now you can get a quality one for a very good price. This is a special offer and we only have a limited number in stock.

It comes with a nice moulded plastic case and instructions. This wrench is 18 inches long for good hand torque and it is made in Taiwan. Much better quality than those made in China.

 

From all my years of working around engines the one thing that absolutely drives me crazy is barbed hose fittings. This even got worse in recents years as many SVO WVO kit makers would send our their components with barbed hose fittings! Just try to remove a rubber fuel hose from a barbed fitting after is has been clamped down, or not even clamped down. Try to remove it after a few months when the hose has been heated and it is even worse!. You end up having to cut the hose off and if you are not careful you can nick the barb and the new hose will leak.

Want to adjust the release pressure on your fuel injectors? Have you been looking forever to find a source for a convient small shim kit in the correct sizes - at an affordable price! Many have or have access to a pressure "pop" tester but finding the right shims is a different matter. I personally looked so long to find a good source that I finally gave up and am now importing these high quality shims directly from Germany. They are extremely accurate in thickness. The shim washers are 11.5 mm in diameter and will work on all Mercedes passenger car diesels from 1958 to 1993.

Keeping your injectors clean and tuned is one of the best ways you can improve mileage in a diesel. Buy both Kents new manual Diesel Fuel Injector Cleaning and Testing Procedures and his Top Brass Custom Cleaning Tool Kit and save!

This is a must read for anyone who is currently running or seriously thinking about running his or her Mercedes diesel on straight vegetable oil (SVO). This is a followup to my introductory guide, Dine Out with Your Diesel. It contains a higher level of technical information on the problems and challenges of long term operations. It has been said that knowledge is power. This is really true when running on SVO / WVO. If you do not have any knowledge of how your system works or what needs to be done to maintain it, then you are going to literally lose your power. The system will only be as reliable as YOU make it.

These are my favorite German hose clamps. They tighten securely, don't cut into the hose, and don't rust or break. If you are working on the fuel system of any Mercedes I recommend you have these clamps on had. Just get ride of those old rusty phillips head screw clamps or worse yet - the US style clamps with holes that cut into the rubber. These clamps will work on all 8 mm hose, 5/16 and 3/8 US spec fuel or coolant hose.

For use with our all fuel specification SUPER FUEL HOSE. CLICK HERE to read more. Great to have on hand if you are planning to build your own diesel to SVO conversion.
