That's what I figured. Thanks @Nero .Pretty much it had algae grow in it. Filter it out and it should be fine when cut with some cetane booster

I have a old hand pump that actually moves diesel really fast. It's slower with the oil, but I was probably filling up a drum in less than 5min. Now, I know that sounds like a BUNCH of work.........but how many hours does someone have to put in at their "job" to make the $1000-1200 you would have to spend on that much diesel? I don't mind sweating a little bit.DANG...nice score! How did you pump that much? Some kind of high-volume transfer pump? Or take a nap for each barrel?
Yeah, if I came across one I'd go electric but I'm in no hurry...... I'm low tech....I get it. I started w/ a hand pump and eventually found a good deal on a military transfer pump that plugs into the trucks slave port. Of course it's 24v so not much use to 12v'ers. It definitely lets me fill the two 50gal tanks in the bed fairly fast.
He's low tech in person, I'm low tech in practice.No. HE'S low tech!
I don't know, that's just a tindge toooooo......uhhhhhh....... well I really don't know, but it's not my bag. I can haul tires to the land fill for free in my county, and I'm not interested in baby sitting a system like that. There's also waste oil distillation, THAT also looks like a bomb about to go off. And if the police or FBI show up there won't be any explaining either of those systems.WMO is yesterday, text me when Jesus Freaks Pyrolysis Fuel thread is live.

Not tto mention neither of those agnecys want us makingbour own fuel so i bet theyd paint you a villin in a haeart beat to make an example.I don't know, that's just a tindge toooooo......uhhhhhh....... well I really don't know, but it's not my bag.

Some of that stuff really seems like a lot of work for just a little. If I had to go through all that, I'd might as well buy diesel.Not tto mention neither of those agnecys want us makingbour own fuel so i bet theyd paint you a villin in a haeart beat to make an example.
This is true seems like a bunch of input to little output.Some of that stuff really seems like a lot of work for just a little. If I had to go through all that, I'd might as well buy diesel.
