Cheap way to clean out WMO even more (using water)
VERY long story below, read it if you care. Saw no one do this so thought I would share. In short: add clean water to your WMO and mix it.

Running straight WMO with electric pre-heater instead of 2 tank system
Wiith rising fuel prices, running 20% RUG in summer (and 40% in winter) is becoming expensive.. Instead of mixing the WMO some people run a 2-tank setup, but then you will be consuming diesel to warm up the car. Approx 5 gallons per month for my situation I calculated.
