Even I may have to start posting here to get my fix.

I'm off to pick up a pump next week, got it off Ebay as it was finishing soon so don't know much about it. It looks like one of these:
http://www.lowara.co.uk/single-stage-pumps_C1/co-threaded-centrifugal-pumps-with-open-impeller_P2668/
I know where I can get a couple of clamp-top drums locally for £15 the pair. So just need to sort out 4 filters and an immersion heater. Also really got to sort out the shed so I can fit all this in there.

I've got most of the components ready to twin-tank my vehicle including 3 tecalemit solenoid valves, 90 litre fuel tank, FPHE. Just short of the actual vehicle I want, some hose and a heated fuel filter.

I am getting there slowly chaps.

I used to have a lowara pump, I found mine to be excellent. Much nicer than far eastern offerings. They are normally really expensive too.

Yeah, pretty expensive, mine was £7.16. I'm not sure where I'll find the money for it, will have to search down the back of the sofa :-)
I saw it on Ebay with no details and no-one really bidding, so figured I'd buy it and worry about whether it was suitable later. Sounds like a good one with stainless internals, but I don't know which model it is until I collect. I think it's the one listed above based on looks, I just hope it's not 3 phase.
This is the ebay listing

Well worth a punt for the money - fingers crossed on it being single phase for you :)

Yeh right!

No honestly, I spent all evening on the wiki, trying to build a new page after getting some lessons off Julian.

If Julian has given you lessons i assume you are making a page on how to turn bio into soap?

You should add an extra line to your signature.
