The best way to clean is a centrafuge,my friend Scott and i went in on one and saved money that way.we got ours from wolverine technoligies in monroe michigan.he says it cleans down to a half micron,so we get free fuel and no clogged filters.im going to try wmo in my tractor too plus a 1.6l vwdiesel rabbit engine on my sand rail.anyway you look at the price at 4 bucks a gal thts about 4 fill up in a duece it will pay for itself.

hey guys first post, have been reading a lot recently on the site. i found this on another forum. not sure how good it is but i am sure a lot of guys will know if this is good or bad for a diy system it is the cheapest i have seen and seems of good quality. hope this helps
Notchback- I just ordered one of their 65 GPH units. I watched the demonstation videos and it seems like a pretty simple unit. I already have pumps so I will not need those from their sites. I have lots of different types of oil to test on it so I will try and report back how it works.

TacDoc- I bought the next one up and so far it is doing what I expect short of heating the oil first. I plan to purchase the heater soon and improve my cleaning power. All of this stuff hinges on how well you dewater and pre-filter stuff before you run it through the centrifuge.
I have some pretty ugly stuff I start out with and so far Im pretty happy with what it does. The equipment from PA Biodiesel is quality stuff for the money sp far.

I dont think I'd have to heat the oil since I'm in FL and my garage gets pretty hot. I'm looking for a setup to make 50 to 100 gals every once in a while as a back up fuel source. So, I'm not sure a 500 or 600 dollar system is needed. I might just filter the oil to 5 microms and water filter.
