Couldn’t you run a water injection system in conjunction with the WMO? It would steam clean the internals at WOT. I’ve always wanted a diy water/**** kit..ever since 16! Not sure why I haven’t done it yet..

Pretty sad state when the word **** is not allowed! I wrote the short hand of methanol and it’s all ****


Damn communists

They're talking about injector pump parts wearing out. Don't water injection kits put the water into the intake?

Something tells me that a water injection system won't do much towards overall engine health....:dunno
Then again, I ain't no expert

As far as I know it’s mostly for the hot rodders but I am in the same boat as you my friend.

Its does help with combustion deposits, ever look at cylinders in an engine that have been consuming coolant.

I’ve been waiting for Russ to chime in on this thread. I know he doesn’t accept IPs that have ran WMO as cores, and using WMO on one of his rebuilds voids the warranty. He must have made that policy change for a reason.

Can a pump be rebuilt to handle WMO?? I mean I know it’s different but we mod motors to take boost, is there a way of modding these pumps too take oil contaminates?

Probably no, given that there is no standard for WMO. There are too many variables as to filtering methods, the oil quality sourced, etc.

Yeah I get that but I was more thinking like interchangeable parts in the pumps where at the moment there just made too a certain tolerance n when worn there stuffed, sort of like sleeves for barrels diff sized pistons etc

It's not that your fuel is thicker, it's that it's full of crap that causes wear. I do not know enough about the pump to tell you where to look, but common sense to me says if the wmo oil you are running in that precision high tolerance pump is clean enough not cause any wear, then why don't you pour it into your engine and reuse it? If pouring wmo into your engine gives you a uneasy feeling, then I would have the same uneasy feeling putting it in my fuel system.

Lots of people run wmo oil. They know it wears the pump out prematurely and accept that as part of the game of saving money. As high as fuel is now, you could run wmo and put a rebuilt pump on it every few years for $800-$1000 and still come out ahead.

I recommend you let the subject rest and not advertise what you are doing so much. Our country is changing, and they have been going after the diesel tuners and other racers. You know the next thing will probably be people skipping out on the road tax. More than likely if burning wmo becomes wildly popular, they will probably make rules on what the garages do with their wmo and your supply may dry up. Stealth is going to be your friend in this subject.
And absolutely stealth is the key, but I did think this forum was all about burning oil as fuel. And then sharing the learning with each other so as too continue doing so for as long as possible as cheap as possible, be a totally different story if he was on Facebook posting this info and questions, I mean I joined Oilburners for exactly that info n help. And injector pumps are the biggest hurdle is see with doing this, not sure what else we’d talk about on oilburners if it’s not burning oil,

Diesel fuel is actually a thin oil and that's what the name refers to. It's the same thing as home heating oil as far as I know. There's nothing wrong with talking about using WMO, AYF, vegetable oil, or any other type of alternate fuel. The forum is more about the engines and trucks than the type of fuel that they burn.

Yeah ok my bad then, just always assumed by the dripping black oil she was all about burning that stuff, still cooler than discussing Honda accords or VW golfs ey

Don't think of it as a mistake. Just think of it as a lucky accident that you found us.
