Tickell Vs. Starbuck & Harper
Follow the instructions in this book and run a very serous risk of being poisoned, blinded, burned and even killed!
I loved Joshua Tickell’s book “From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank”, indeed back in about 2000 it it not an exaggeration to say that it did nothing short of change my life.
However as time has passed research has been done and methods perfected which make Joshua’s book extraordinarily dated. Even though Joshua has had several opportunities the rework the book it still contains, among other things, plans for a DIY biodiesel processor which expose the user a very serous risk of being poisoned, blinded, burned and even killed!
It is time From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank was either rewritten or removed from sale, it is dangerous!
Back in 2007 I and my friend Gavin set out to write an up to date book on running diesel engines on biofuels, biodiesel and vegetable oil.
The giant publishing house McGraw -Hill liked our pitch and bought our book. Run Your Diesel Vehicle on Biofuels was published in October 2008.
I am very proud of our book, it was an enormous undertaking and we both worked very hard to make it the best, most complete, most accurate, friendly and readable book on DIY biofuels, biodiesel and SWO on the market.
Buy this book, it is much better, much more accurate and much more up to date.
Nevertheless one year on our book is not selling half as well as Joshua’s one. Despite it being ten-years-old and ten-years-out-of-date, people still seem to prefer to buy Joshua’s book…. with something like ten-times as many people buying his book on Amazon.com… over ours.
If you are one of the folks who has bought a copy of my book then thank you! We would appreciate you taking the time to review it for us… preferably favourably, but not necessarily… even just a few lines is going to be very helpful.
Either send the review directly to us, or go on line and review it at www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com (depending on whether you are a US or UK coustomer, they don’t seem able to integrate these things) or at one of the thousands of other places you could review a book on diesel engines and biofuels.
