    TD5 Axles max BHP

    Hi What would be the most BHP that you would be happy with to put through 24 spline axles ? I have Disc brake Salsibury on my 110 which has a 6.2 GMC engine and they seem fine but I am just planning a new 90 on a Galv Chassis and would think it will end up having 200 + BHP. Many thanks Simon

    bio diesel

    I think the Etanol was added to the Biodiesel for the cars preformance. If Biodiesel is washed right all of the Methanol should be removed, It is the Methanol that holds suspended soaps and kills rubber including seals. Regards simon

    bio diesel

    If it runs on Diesel then it will run on Bio-diesel, May need to add 10-15% pump diesel in the winter as bio can get a bet thick. simon GLOUCESTER BIODIESEL You could also have a look at this web site :- vegetableoildiesel.co.uk - Powered by XMB
