ok I will start with the 50/50 mix. I want an electric pump for this use. I don’t know if it is necessary to put between 3 filters of 20,10 and 1 micron??
My successful use has been 80 used motor oil and 20 parts gasoline. Old stale gas is fine, stinky stale gas is not as good.
Blend uMO and gas really well. Let set there to five days. Drain any water and sludge off of bottom. Filter through one micron filter. If you can locate 2 micron spin on filter for catepillar, that is the best.
I filter through 22 micron and fifteen micron before I filter through two micron. You can filter only through two micron, but the filters clog very quickly.

makes it thinner so the injectors / fuel pump / fuel filters like it better ... at least thats what im told
Gasoline also seems to have the effect of helping junk and suspended contaminates fall out of suspension. After they fall out, the filtering process goes much smoother and the filters last much longer.
I have some magnets on the strainer to were the dirty oil gets poured into my waste barrel so that the oil runs over them before going into it. I also have some in my first filter sock. probably overkill and unnecessary but in my mind its only "free" fuel if it doesn't cost a bunch in filters or repairs down the road.

oke thanks for the info, I will try first with the 50/50 mix.
and I will eventually look what percentage I think it is the best one.
The filters are still in the reo standard 10 micron right??

which is always a disadvantage that there always some iron in used oil can sit on the engines.
it is a good idea to use magnets during filtering. of course you want this stuff does not get in the tank.

Make sure you put a bypass valve in the flow path. If the filters get clogged and you have no bypass, you could crush the filters, putting un-filtered fuel in the filtered fuel, or worse, bursting a housing.
I don't think it is necessary to filter in three stages, but I do think it is wise(a good idea).
I have 2 ideas made:
so must be about my filter installation will look. only I must have a magnet on the installation.
the only problem is that we herevin NETHERLANDS environmental zone have some city.
