  Dr. Rudolph Diesel ran his first engine on vegtable oil not diesel.

  Incorrect, his first engine ran on coal dust. Better get cranking on that conversion! 
  
  Also, he didn't have ANY part in the design, building or tuning of your engine. The only things in common between his engine and yours is using compression for ignition heat and a reciprocating piston design.
  

  
  I guess my point is that it wasn't on diesel. We have adapted to whats easier and cheaper to run on. This poor thread has been jacked.
