I started this thread to see what kind of accelerated wear is happening to engine parts by using waste oil and what can be done to minimize the wear. Some dump the oil straight from the drain pan into their fuel tank and call it good. Others filter while others run the oil through a centrifuge. I hope Mel comments on some of the pumps he has come back as cores. Was the extra wear caused by water, metal particles, acid, carbon? Input from anyone that has seen damage attributed to waste oil would be good.
My intention is not to discourage the use of waste oil but to delvelop methods to minimize wear or damage to your engine. Let the games begin.
