Indeed My Truck Is Eating Chinese! :-)

On my last update I had just finished the conversion on my truck. Here are some pictures from my truck's maiden voyage running on Vegetable Oil from a local Chinese Restaurant!

These pictures are from last Saturday just after my previous update.

Gassing up, and getting ready!

More of Joanna's artistic touch as we drive out the driveway :)

Just having a blast vegging! :) LOL!

Snif, Snif... Is someone grilling, or is that my truck? Oh and I might ad... my truck smells DELICIOUS! :) To be honest it smells like someone has BBQ Chicken on the grill. :)

Snif, Snif... Is that us? NO! That's the farm down the road! Joseph apparently doesn't like the smell :) LOL!

Oh BTW: Be sure to watch the bottom of the side bar (to your right) to stay updated on how much money running on WVO can save someone!

WVO Update!

Last night I FINISHED My W.V.O. conversion! :) Ok "Finished" is never finished, but the current system is up and running! :) Here's some pictures from yesterday's final push to get it done.

Me under the hood again!

Just a little tip, disconnecting and re-connecting short rubber hoses behind an engine is difficult, and VERY UNCOMFORTABLE! Not recommended unless necessary. :)

I LOVE MY BEAUTIFUL TRUCK! :)

WOW! That looks posed! But sorry, it's not, I'm actually working :)

Here's my little work area, fully equipped with a nice fan to shoo all the mosquitoes away! The mosquitoes were by far the biggest delay in this job. I couldn't work during the night because of all the bugs! But a fan did the trick, and I've been able to put in two late nights this week and get it DONE! :)

The conversion is done! Here's a shot of me bleeding the fuel lines to remove the bubbles.

Almost There: WVO Conversion

For those of you who haven't heard, I'm working on converting my truck to run on Waste Vegetable Oil (WVO)!

I'm almost done, and I should be able to watch this thing eat Chinese within the week! :)

Stay tuned for a more detailed update once it's done.

The AUX tank install almost complete!

My Summer Math Course is DONE! :)

Last Wednesday was the Final Exam for a math course (Gen Ed Math) that I was taking at Rock Valley College in the Summer Interim III! It was a three week course that covered a full semester of work! The math teacher said it was not a condensed class at all! Anyway, it was by far the hardest class I've taken at RVC so far. We covered a little of statistics, geometry, trigonometry, algebra, logic, and more! Anyway, I spent all day Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday studying for the final exam, :/ but I think the exam went very well! PRAISE THE LORD!

On the way home from the Final Exam, I decided to stop at Wendy's for a Crispy Chicken Sandwich and a Jr. Cheese-Burger.
After I got my order at the drive through, I started driving away and thought to myself: Wait! I smell French fries! I opened my bag and in it was a medium french fries! YAY!... ...But wait!... Where is my Crispy Chicken Sandwich? Nope, not there, they left it out! So I went back and the lady at the drive-up told me to go to the second window and they'd fix my order. So I pulled up, they handed me another bag, and said, "I put your Chicken in there". I said "thanks!" looked in the bag, and what should I see but Chicken Nuggets! Not a Crispy Chicken Sandwich like I had ordered! I looked up and said "Oh, I didn't order Chicken Nuggets either! :)" She said "I know baby, I made those just for you!" I said "well thanks, but I DID order a Crispy Chicken Sandwich, can I?..." She said "that's in there also, under the nuggets, I made those just for you, sorry baby, didn't mean to mess up your order." I said "oh wow! Thank you so much!" And drove away quite happy with my $2 meal of Chicken Nuggets, Medium Fries, Jr. Cheese-Burger, and a Crispy Chicken Sandwich. :) But the story doesn't end there! By the time I got around to eating my Jr. Cheese-Burger, I opened it and realized that this was not a Jr! I got a full size burger! YAY! Now I was really happy! :)

I hope Wendy's messes up my order next time, and oh, I might ad... That's not the first time that that Wendy's has messed up my order. :) I guess you could call me a faithful patron from now on? I don't know, I really prefer Burger King... ...hmm... ...But that's another topic for another day. :)
