Well its been a while since I updated anything. I have been doing some work however so the next couple posts should show some of whats been happening.
Back in post 25, I mentioned I would be building a waste motor oil filter setup out of the deuce's old filters since I changed them to spin-ons.
When I bought my deuce 2 years ago, I decided to start saving my used oil. I was given a clean 55g drum from work and keep all my old oil from oil changes in my cars and deuce (I didn’t keep any gear lube). I've now filled the drum and figured I better get the filter setup finished so I can keep saving/using my wmo.
I was given a new pump motor and then I purchased a pump for it from ebay. I also bought a couple fittings, new funnel with lid and screen, and a fuel nozzle (just for fun). Everything else is scrap parts I had or found. I have less than $100 into this system as it sits now. I replaced all the filters on my truck with spin-on units, and the guy I bought my truck from gave me several new sets of baldwin fuel filters for the stock system which I can use on this setup for now.
So this WMO filter system is basically just the Deuces 3 Stock fuel filters and at the end is another napa/wix 4770 base and Baldwin BF7587 (2 micron) filter. I've test run it and it works well, I plumbed it so the bypass of the secondary filter will go back into the pump to recirculate if pressure gets too high. The pump also has an adjustable bypass on it. So far all the gauges read about 8-10 psi when running.
I've also put a large magnet on the bottom of the drum in hopes that it keeps as much metal from making its way through the pump & filters and into my deuce's fuel tank.
The Final 2 micron filter was a recent add on so eventually I'll rearrange everything on the mounting panel so that filter isnt hanging off the side like it now is.
