I have not been on here for a while and have noticed that since prices of fuel has went up that more people are using wmo. I have got started on my 72 f350 project again and I was looking at some of my oil that I filtered six monthes ago. I will start out by telling yall my filtering process. I have two barrels with the first one I have a spicket about half way up barrel. The second barrel has a hole cut large enough to put my sock filters in to let gravity filtering from spicket. The filters go 200,100,50,25,10,5,1 micron. I have a pump in this barrel that I pump to jugs or tanks to put in truck. Now here is where Im wondering if yall have seen this issue. The jugs have been sitting for a long period of time, today when I put a few gallons of oil in my 04.5 cummins I noticed heavy sludge at the bottom of the two jugs. What is the sludge if im filtering down to 1micron? and how do I take care of this. On my powerstroke I was changing the filter on the truck every oilchange because the truck started running bad if I didnt. The filters that im using only have filtered 100gal of oil so far so I dont think the problem is the filters. If there is that much sludge at the bottom of each gallon of oil I put in, imagine what the tank looks like after a few fillups! So guys what do you think I need to do?
