If anyone can help me, I would like to to know what exactly would I need to
modify (gaskets,
fuel lines, etc,) to run my 1978 Wanderlodge cat 3208 on B100.

Thanks,

Sure. Change all the flex fuel lines over to teflon lined stainless braided
steel and remount the fuel filters to a convenient location. You will be
changing them more often. Previous owner changed both my fuel filters location
to the LP compartment. Works great there. Goes with out saying you should have
a good working pressure/vaccum gage on the fuel supply line at the injection
pump.

Thanks Mike,

I already have one filter in the LP compartment; the other is convenient and
easily replaced
on the top of the engine. The guy at the fuel depot said I should worry about
gaskets. Is
that also the case? I appreciate the help, though with a full tank of diesel, I
won't be
filling up again until late fall.

Thanks,

Fitz
