The measurements taken were fuel volume delivered by the injector, pressure at the injector, pressure drop across the filter, transfer pump pressure and the fuel injection timing. It was concluded that low amounts of sunflower oil could be used during summer months.North Dakota State UniversityBiofuelsThe Effect of Sunflower Oil on a Diesel Fuel SystemArticle
