Except that's not biodiesel. You'd just be running 50% WVO, 50% petroleum diesel.

 

true....main question is, would it work? atleast id save half on fuel cost

 

A few here have tried running straight WVO or mixing it in some proportion as you're talking about doing, so I'll let them answer in more detail. From what I understand, it might work OK in hot weather (depending on the blend ratio), but in cooler weather that WVO will gel up inside your fuel lines and filter real quick...

 

here in the summer it normally stays 80s-90s during the day and maybe as low as mid 60s at night....whats the lowest temp that i can run this stuff at?

 

Funny that this 1 1/2 year old post came back to life. I just filtered out 5 gallons of WVO last night.

 

I'm not brave enough to run it in my CTD yet so I put it in my 1975 Ford tractor and it ran great.

 

I would suggest running it thru some kinda of paper filter too. I ran mine through a coffee filter.

 

The stuff I've got is nasty, nasty, nasty. That is why I have let it set in the garage for 3 months. A wire type filter would not work for me.

 

It was a pure amber color after running it thru the filter. I mixed the 5 gallons of WVO with 7 gallons of red diesel and dumped it in the tractor.

 

As for filters they make a filter for filtering used oil from frying turkeys with a big funnel that would work
