How does the Frybrid system work?
The Frybrid system is a two tank fuel system. The vehicle’s original diesel fuel system functions just as it always has, once the vehicle is started the engine produces heat which is transferred form the engine by the coolant. The Frybrid system taps into the engines coolant using this waste heat to heat the vegetable oil to a temperature where it will combust with similar characteristics to diesel fuel. The temperature of the engines coolant is monitored by a microprocessor and when it detects that the system is capable of delivering fuel at an acceptable temperature it simply switches the fuel feeding to engine to the vegetable oil tank and without hesitation the engine begins to consume the vegetable oil rather than the diesel fuel. Before the vehicle is shut down the fuel system must be returned to diesel operation, this must be initiated by the driver by pressing a button, the microprocessor then deals with the switching of the valves and the purging of the fuel system insuring th
