[diesel_mercedes] Re: Alternate Diesel Fuels

 

Bobby,
SWMBO told me what is happening with cyano bacteria,this evening while we were sitting in the hot tub. (her micro biological creds are very strong)
Cyano bacteria, is a group of bacteria that grow out in a cyan color, there are a number of different ones which have different names, some are called cyano bacter xyz. There are quite a few of them, they have nothing to do with algae, and will not produce oil, the have nothing to do with cyanide. They are firmly entrenched in the medical world and have been for probably a hundred years now, although new strains are being found as they evolve.

Whoever told you that algae has been renamed as cyano bacteria is wrong, bacteria is not algae, nor algae bacteria.
I commend you for looking for good oil producing algae, but if you muddy the waters with wrong terms you will just confuse people.
I think that algae oil production for bio fuels is the way of the future,so lets keep our terms straight.
Cheers, Tony.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: Alternate Diesel Fuels

 

Tony,

I have never developed an interest in the reclassification of life into groups.

I think that what used to be called blue-green algae has been renamed cyano-bacteria.

I think that none of them produce much oil.

I think that the 20 that we are interested in are true algaes.

My concern is finding 1 or more species that can be "farmed" to produce oil.

My favorite is CCMP647, a strain of Pleurochrysis carterae.  If we prove that it works, maybe we can ask your SWMBO to verify the proper classification of it.

<https://ncma.bigelow.org/node/1/strain/CCMP647>

NCMA (used to be CCMP) says it is:
Class: Prymnesiophyceae        Genus: Pleurochrysis       Species: carterae

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: Alternate Diesel Fuels

 

Nate,

If you want some B100, it can probably by found from smaller, "underground" suppliers.  Caution, they often charge even more than the dino diesel sellers.

If you have trouble finding B100, let me know - I might be able to go to the way back machine.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: Alternate Diesel Fuels

 

Boyd,

It is a common misconception that we are talking about depleting the algae that is currently in the world.

Most wild algae strains are almost worthless as fuel - they contain so little oil that there is no point in extracting the oil.  There are only about 20 species that produce significant oil and you have to give them just the right conditions - which doesn't happen in the wild.  (It has been estimated that there are over 300,000 species of algae - so the chance of finding one of the 20 in the wild is very slim.)

Growing and harvesting algae would involve creating special ponds for them, selecting a likely species, getting a small pure sample, growing that sample up to a big enough population to fill your ponds, and then harvesting your pond.

(Reality note - it will be much more difficult than that summary sounds like.)

The natural population of algae will not be altered.  So even if harvesting algae was going to somehow affect the ecology, we are not going to harvest the natural population.

A few years ago I volunteered to be a judge in the local high school's science fair. One of the kids had harvested two types of algae from local ponds (which he called "green" and "brown" algae), extracted the oil from them, and burned it to determine which algae had more energy. Every now and then a kid comes along who renews my faith in the future.

On a related note, why are we always looking for the one single thing to replace oil? It's probably better to replace it with a bunch of things, not just one.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Bushings for pump linkage, and shifter linkage??

 

For small stuff like that try your friendly neighborhood Mercedes dealer.  By the time you add postage charges etc on an internet purchase, the dealers price will be not too much more.  They also have the pictures on their computer so that you can point at what you need.  I'll be selling some parts books and manuals soon on ebay.  I'll give the group a heads up when it happens.

I'm also looking for the linkage bushings for the shift mechanism, as sometimes you have to "wiggle" the shifter to get "drive" out of "D"..

Anyone know anyone that sells them-- or even what to ask for??

[diesel_mercedes] 2 EARLY 80'S 300TDs FOR SALE

 

Everyone:

I have two early 80's 300td's. One is my daily driver and the other is a parts car that I have occasionally needed to use parts from. I hate to do it, but selling these two cars relieves me of about 70% of the mass I own and they are the only assets I have that I can sell for some much needed cash. One of them has been my daily driver for the last 10 years. I would still not hesitate to take it across country. The parts car has an engine and transmission and they both work although the engine could use a good Italian tune up. The parts car engine is from a sedan and does not have the SLS pump. sorry. The daily driver is not by any means cosmetically perfect. There are an assortment of rust spots and a few dents. This has never bothered me because I use cars. I don't worship them. This has been more of a work vehicle than anything and it has held up well. I also have a workbench full of parts like injection pumps and engine and powertrain parts. I have several spare starters (one could use new bushings), and several spare alternators (and one of them needs brushes). I keep a known good starter and alternator in the daily driver. It is breaking my heart to sell the most reliable thing in my life right now. But it's the most viable option I have right now. The cars are in central Utah about 50 miles south of Salt Lake City. If anyone is interested please respond by email. I am asking $2000 for everything but will consider offers. I will have pictures on a local (KSL.COM) classifieds site soon (I hope). But I thought I would give you guys a pre sale look.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Diesel Powered Genset

 

I'd suggest that anyone contemplating building a genset of the their very own, should first buy a copy of "The Home Power Producer's Guide to Electrical Reality", by Bill Rodgers.  Amazon knows it exists, but can't get any, I suspect it available through utterpower.com, a site obsessed with making and using home power gensets.

Aside from a concise EE education, that book tells you that you want about 12 hp per 5kw ouput.  Any more power than that, and you likely will run the engine far enough off its power peak to cause  "wet stacking" and general fuel wastage  .  Since the 240 engine could be producing around 35kw at best rpm, you are likely to want a smaller engine, something in the 15-25hp range for a home genset...

If you don't want to bother buying one of the zillions of near new Military Surplus ones , look on Poo-Toobe for Mercedes Diesel Generator , I saw several 240D OM616 engines powering GenSets , I don't know how they're coupled but it can't be too difficult as there are already tranny adapters to bolt your OM616/617 to a GM tranny , it's just a matter of looking up similar adapters for Marine use where they use In-Out Dog Clutches then build it.....

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Alternate Diesel Fuels

 

That's the thing about the fill-up stations...we won't need 'em anymore. BTW, now they look more like hot dog stands than gas stations, anyway. I see battery swapping stations in our future...hopefully.

Using algae would keep the carbon in a cycle without releasing more (or not much more, we'll always release it)

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Bushings for pump linkage, and shifter linkage??

 


Go OnLine to the various M-B Parthaus' , spend some time looking through the fuel then body sections , in time you'll find the throttle linkage parts & bushings .

[diesel_mercedes] Re: "dead" cluster, turn signals..

 


Yes , that's what he meant ;

If everything stopped all at once , before touching it I'd make a point of replacing _ALL_ the fuses so they have copper (yellow colored) strips , the white / gray colored ones are notorious for causing problems and they cannot be reliably fixed .

Do this FIRST or pay the price .
