[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 2379370, member: 15643"] Yes....came from the restaurant, poured through a cloth to strain out the big stuff. Allowed to settle overnight, pumped from the top of the barrel through a 10m, 5m and then a 1 micron filter into another barrel where 15gal of filter WVO was mixed with 1 gal unleaded. Then pumped into the truck. Had to keep track of how much mixed fuel was in the 6.0l, it wasn't really practical for that engine. It shined in the 7.3l though.......the older, more mechanical the diesel, the easier it is to run the WVO. Like what mtnboomer said, the older 6.9l and 7.3l fords with dual tanks were perfect for this application......diesel in one tank to start and shut down on, the other tank with WVO to run while going down the road. Our climate is almost too cold IMO to run WVO very reliably, without a heated tank, fuel lines, and pumps on the truck. [/QUOTE]
