Project Update

So I have not had time lately due to the fact that I just moved into school to update this blog. Anyway, the truck's conversion has been running great, no problems with the electrical even after enduring pounding hard rain, going through mud and clay pits, the system has remained flawless. The only maintenance is to replace the fuel filter every 3 or 4 months which I have done twice since it has been installed. The motor is going to be undergoing some work in the next couple months. I have a leak around the crank seal, and I also need a valve adjustment and a new water pump. The total project cost is somewhere around a thousand dollars. The truck still needs a good restoration of the body, interior is in excellent condition, mechanically in very condition as well.

The project will be concluded once all the motor work has been completed to continue work on another Mercedes G Class project in the near future

The truck will be sold, the money from the sale will be invested and a new G Class will be purchased and a cleaner, more OEM-like vegetable oil conversion will be carried around with a hidden, heated fuel tank. This truck will also undergo a ten thousand dollar 6 cylinder turbo diesel swap. More information to follow. Please stay tuned for information regarding finding the proper vehicle, motor, and conversion procedures. Thanks!
