Picked up the W123, ready for veggie and safe cold starts!
Yesterday I went to PPO-Systems to pick up the car. The nice fellow over there was happy to tell me all about the installation and the conversion. The installation of the Webasto was also finished, but he was not able to test it because Harrie and I need to finish the little 6L tank first. The install of both systems was very professionally done, great work, really, I was amazed.
Ready for SVO take off.
The installation was done like it is original Mercedes factory equipment, very, very professional and it all looks good. I also asked a lot about the system, what to do in case of problems, because I want to know what to do, when I’m in remote areas. A good thing is there are no intricate electronics, which Elsbett did on purpose, a regular technical person with basic knowledge should be able to understand and fix it.
Funny thing was that my car seems to be the first car which was converted over there, they usually do transporters/trucks.
However, things are changing now, the dutch are waking up. Prices and pollution seems to have reached a treshold among a lot of people. Yet the government, they don’t want to loose money, so they charge extra taxes for it, it is illegal to just put it in your tank, and not paying taxes. Hell with them, they should support this, instead of charging tax for it. The environment belongs to us all.
