    What waste oil makes the best fuel

    Definitely new Zealand, diesel was more expensive then petrol uptill a fue days ago and you gotta pay for ruc (road user charges) on top that at $76 per 1000 km. It's a joke, hence why if your in the know you run a switch for your odometer or rewind ya ks between wof(warrent of fitness...

    Injector pump longevity

    My thinking is that I't shouldn't effect your injection pump if its clean, as it's not getting bunt there, just passing through and if you run a duel tank setup it will get diesel washed on startup and shut down. Only concern would be viscosity causing drag/ wear but my feeling is its oil and...

    Centrifuge first run with pictures

    Cheers. I had a read of that post and it kinda helps, most of the old people seem to be using are a mix where as this stuff I'm getting is straight trans/hydraulic oil . The amount I'm processing is about 160 liters to get that much sludge. Potentially my oil is cleaner than I thought? I was...

    Any one running wmo in a toyota 1kz engine?

    Yeah it is mechanical injection past that just "Fly by wire throttle" and timing/pump pressure adjusted electronically. Would you guys suggest running a duel tank setup from the beginning or just start with % mixes and single tank?

    Any one running wmo in a toyota 1kz engine?

    Its an electronicaly controlled pump, how does that effect running on oil? I'm looking a putting veriable resistors in to adjust timing and fuel pressure on the fly while running on waste oil. Also does boost effect running on waste oil?
