Veggie Oil Van Specs:
This van is a 1982 Volkswagen Diesel Vanagon Westfalia Camper. The original 1.6 liter engine was replaced with a 1.9 liter Turbo charged AAZ series engine, used in the Volkswagen Jetta. The engine was imported from Canada. The van has a four speed transmission. The interior sleeps 4-6 with the pop-top loft bed and the fold out couch, and is complete with refridgerator (Propane, 110 or 12 volt operation) an 11 gallon drinking water tank, 2 burner propane stove, sink and table.

Fuel tank filler modifications
Now that the hole from the outside of the van to the veggie-oil tank and the elongated fuel tank neck to the outside of the van are installed (thanks Pete!), Norm has fabricated us a PVC funnel with a 90 degree angle bend we can use to fill the vegetable oil tank from the OUTSIDE! No more spilling oil inside the van and ruining our clothes!
