This is pretty cool. I wonder what the locag oil change place would carge me for used oil..
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I am very interested in the results of the before and after oil analysis. I would be willing to throw in a couple of $ to help speed it along.Stretch44875 said:I finally got a couple batches run.

beaubeau, do you run yours mixed with regular gas or diesel, and at what ratiobeaubeau said:Ok if some one must filter Used motor oil, which I have never done in 20years, and I have had No proplems running used motor oil in any of my diesels. The old way of doing it is as simple as having 2 buckets, whether 5 gals, or 55 gals,. Put one container obove the other, use a piece of Manilla rope, stick it in the top bucket and the other end in the lower bucket. Create a Siphon so oil flows from top bucket to bottom bucket along the Rope.. Amazing how clean the oil will be in bottom bucket when done. I used to do this back in the 60s and reuse the oil in my car.Don't need a College" degreeser" for this!!?? Never lost an engine in my life!! Never had problems running used oil in my diesels! Just have to change fuel filters more often. Good Luck, no matter how U do it. Phil
I had seen that done in Mexico about thirty some years ago, I guess it is still feasable today! Everybody wants everything right now, so this is slow, it is damn near free!beaubeau said:Ok if some one must filter Used motor oil, which I have never done in 20years, and I have had No proplems running used motor oil in any of my diesels.

Manila rope comes from a Philippine plant (Musa textilis) of the banana familysuperburban said:Beaubeau,
What is "manilla rope"? I must be a young-un, because I have heard of manila envelopes, driven through Manila, Utah, and even spent some time in Manila, Philippines, but I have never heard of manilla rope.
(I suspect that I know exactly what it is, but just call it another name.)
