I saw this on Xtreme 4X4 this morning and thought about Diablo.

I just watched that show too. They made it look so easy didn't they? The way they run the fuel line inside of a radiator hose was pretty wild huh?

I like the system. I hate the price. It is not cost effective imo unless you use your truck as a tow vehicle daily and run it from sun up to sun down. or travel constantly. I think I can rig up or have rigged up a aux tank and plumbing and do it all without the heater for a fraction of there system costs.

Check the other thread out on this subject.

That whole segment was joke. Just like most of the stuff on that show, its more marketing to try and sell you some product than anything else. Also, good luck on finding the "free" used oil.

Yeah, that's kinda the feeling I got while watching it Bob. However I'll be honest with you. Had I not been a little more informed ( thanks to you guy's ) I probably would start seriously thinking about a system like that based on that show. They did a really good job of presenting it as an easy / trouble free install.
