Dirty used oil

[shawn deere]

hey guys, at the farm we have a 250 gallon ibc full of used oil
But were not careful on how it gets there. Or covering it. Or cleaning the buckets used to dump oil in it

So. Its dirty, sandy, and slimy.

Can a guy filter it enough to be burned in my turbo idi?

Thanks!

What he said.... Water and sand both drop to the bottom. Pump off the top, filter and centrifuge.

I heat mine to drive off the water. You would be surprised how much water the oil holds even after settling out.
