[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2382067, member: 29706"] I have not been able to do this as I do not have a diesel vehicle or the space but have looked quite a bit up. When you process WVO and run it mixed you should be highly filtering as well as have a heater on a storage tank to help remove excess water from the oil. [url]http://www.greasecar.com/[/url] Making true bio diesel requires a setup to heat the oil after filtering do the mixing in etc., methanol, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide (lye) and WVO. When you are done processing you have to separate the glycerine remove the excess methanol and then remove the soaps that form in the diesel. Removing the soap is oddly enough done with a simple water wash system in small setups and large companies use a centrifuge to separate, you can also buy a filter but they generally don't last a long time and will increase the cost of making. It is a multi step process but helps to ensure better compatibility with newer engines.
