creamy WVO vs clear
I'm in my 3rd year of running WVO via Kent's single tank system. My WVO source has been clear WVO. I recently located a 2nd source that uses creamy oil vs the clear. I picked up the first batch two weeks ago and even after settling over 1/2 of the cube remains opaque and clogs my bag filters.
Would appreciate some feedback from others using creamy WVO

1980 240d alternator troubleshoot
car wouldn't start, pulled voltage regulator, inner brush was worn out, while outer was over 1/4 inch. both were worn with same concave profile. does this spell alternator trouble?
i installed a borrowed voltage regulator, and all seemed ok first day. now, at idle, if i turn the lights on, it changes pitch of the engine. the engine bay is clean, and alternator looks newer even though the car has way over 300k.

1984 300D intermittent erratic temp. guage
Anyone ever experience this: "Old Yella" runs great as I have been retired a little over 2 years now and the car has become a hobby to me as well as my daily driver. With the help of this site I have got the vehicle pretty much re-born. There is one thing that I haven't been able to remedy. The car's water temp guage reads right where Mercedessource states it should 99% of the time,(a picture of the guage reading is on this site or in one of the manuals) just around the 80 degree celsius mark.

1981 300td vacuum problems
When isolating the vacuum pump it takes about 3-4 seconds to build up to 23hg. Is that too long? I have not been able to get a brake booster that holds vacuum is my pump just not able to keep up?
