You paid for some good engine oil right? How about saving a gallon or two of diesel by pouring it back into the tank.

  • and what about fuel filters don't they get really messy?

  • @MrKlemensas They will turn black and as long as the oil is really clean the fuel filter will last longer.

  • @DieselPowerTV do you do this to most of your machines often?

  • @gdogdieseldually We use used engine oil in hydraulic tanks, diesel tanks, and top off a low engine oil level back in the engine. Even a 12v cummins will enjoy a little or alot of engine oil in the fuel tank.

  • @hondatrix No ! Wrong again! We have broken up a race track for oversize children with male ego disturbances and planted some trees. :)

  • @ginovanable

    ...hehehee..someone had to remove the trees where your house is built now...(-:

  • Congrats, you're killing the environment in every possible way !

  • Wow , You must be proud! First destroy the trees, and then making the place toxic. Maybe after a few years of toxic fumes you'll grow a brain! :)

  • well alot of the REALLY big diesel engine run on oil or crude oil alone so

  • @pvcarmon1 you just need to filter the oil and you can use it in composition with other diesel fuel.

    In Europe, biodiesel (vegetable oil) it is already in mandatory use in combination with regular diesel.

  • Make sense.

    Diesel fuel is actually oil.

    The only issue is that you will have a little more NOx in the smoke and the smoke will be stingy to the eyes. In rest no problem for the engine if the oil do not have too many gums in composition.

  • Wow, I wonder what used oil would do to a late model direct injection electronic diesel engine. Did you notice an increase or decrease in overall power?

  • @gdogdieseldually We have a 500 gallon fuel tank on a trailer and a 50 gallon fuel tank for the smaller equipment.

  • @DieselPowerTV how do yall fill all the dozers up with fuel, do you have a tank on the farm or what?
