Veggie Oil Fuel Home Processing Plant - Filtering

Video describing my home veggie oil filtration set up. Specifically the filtration step.

I filter used cooking oil from a local restaurant and burn it as fuel in my 2001 diesel Volkswagen Jetta TDI. And I'm about to explain and show everything I did to accomplish this.

can you send me a list to start my own filter station, all the items i will need to pump from cite and to bring home and filter? thanks!!! IM VERY INTERESTED!!

[smellslikefries]

It's not difficult. Get some filters, get a stand, pour. Nothing magic, just think it through for yourself.

do you have a kit you bought for your car to run the fuel? or something you made? did you heat fuel lines and what not? thanks for your help

To make biodiesel, you add Lye and Methenol in the proper amounts, heat the whole mess up to about 60C (70C will ignite the methenol) mix it for a few hours and let it settle.

But I don't use BioDiesel. I installed a kit in my car that lets me burn streight veggie oil.
