Veggie Oil Fuel Home Processing Plant -- Finished Product

[Reverseflush]

Looks like a sloppy setup

[smellslikefries]

It's not something I want to eat off of, true.  But it met my price and fuel quality standards.

[Reverseflush]

I mean your organization of de unit

[smellslikefries]

Organization? Since I'm the only one using it and it doesn't take much space, I feel it's organized enough. :) To each their own.

Would you like a job on my farm?

[smellslikefries]

I'll have to decline. Thanks for the offer however.

I'm interested in this issue very much. Question - if there is salt in waste oil from deep frying, can that salt damage engine parts (diesel noozles), if you are not removing it during oil processing?

BTW, I like your videos, and the way you do this : )

[smellslikefries]

Salt will disolve completly in oil or water. So there will be nothing for the noozles to catch. My filtering process in this video was to 10micron, I'm now at 1micron. My nozzels were 105micron. So i'm good. :)

the energy u use to heat the veg oil will negate any savings surely unless u use waste veg oil burners to heat it or a generator running on veg oil powering an electric heater?

[smellslikefries]

Not so. You are not the first ask me this question. Check out the analysis I did on my blog. tinyurl com yzaa3vb

I couldnt get that blog address to work.

I can run my car on single tank veg oil, I have a bosch pump that is able to pump the stuff, can u just filter used oil, add some white spirit or methanol and use?

what does ur process remove/ do essentially?

[smellslikefries]

Nothing needs to be added for streight vegoil. BioDiesel conversion is another kettle of fish.

YouTube doesn't allow URLs in posts so you have to add a . and a / as appropriate.

What kind of setup do you have on your jetta. I looked at the greasecar kit but its 1000 dollars and I think it was cheaper a couple of months ago.

[smellslikefries]

it is a greasecar system. $1000 seems about right. Mine came to $1200 after shipping (UPS rapes canadians when shipping across the border)

[ralphp1800]

After looking around I found their prices to be the cheapest at or around 1000. had any problems with your kit?

[Magganrchy]

This is great! I am building a similar system. though i am doing things a little backwards. I plan to bein with pouring pre filtered oil into a water heater and heating it up. Then draining the water and sludge from the bottom using the existing faucet. When i get to clean oil i am emptying the remaining good oil into a commercial water jug, which will be suspended upside down over a barrel with a bag filter in between. That way the oil is heated and filtering is quicker.

Hey i got an idea...right b4 it goes in the spout put a piece of a shirt over it so like it filters it of the dust

[smellslikefries]

the idea of not using all the oil in the tank is to avoid *all* dust. The left over dreggs are not all lost. I usually leave it in there for the next time I fill the tank and dewater. If I wanted to get every last drop, I'd be using a centrifuge - look around youtube for videos. They're sooo cool. :P
