Thinning with pump fuel vs heating.
Both methods are done with one goal in mind, to thin the viscosity of the oil so that the centrifuge can pull the maximum amount of containments from the oil.
It is different for every person as their source of WMO can be a different viscosity.
You can add diesel to thin the viscosity cutting it about 50% give or take and that should be more than adequate in most situations.
Heating the oil to 170-200°F also works in most applications and thins the oil enough. Relatively easy down south.
If you are in a colder climate or have very thick oil, thinning the oil somewhat and heating the oil may be necessary.
The end result which you want is the same, to thin the viscosity of the oil.
Hope that helps
