It's a bit like distillation. Heat used engine oil until it smokes, then condense it into a liquid. Smelly, high temperatures, and toxic ash as a waste product. But it may make a good diesel fuel. | |||

No, he claimed it was mixing it with something not high heat. | |||

Then he's got some vegetable oil/gasoline/kerosene blended with WMO....and probably the secrete deezel snake oil. "Cracking" is a high temperature process. | |||

Then he's not cracking it. He'll be diluting it with some hydrocarbon thinner like toluene or something and filtering it. Possibly low grade cellulose paint thinners they use for washing out spray guns in body shops. | |||

Google Lindsay Williams. Someone on this board doesn't like that name since the correct spelling, with an 'sey' versus 'say' brings up an 'admin approval' page. Within a day or two the incorrect spelling of Lindsay will probably also be flagged so expect these posts to 'disappear'. Try it yourself. Yes I am posting this to a bunch of pages since I smell a big fat rat!!! Google Lindsay Williams!!! | |||

Now I am considering the possibility of converting used motor oil to a diesel fuel after seeing it on a website but I do have a lot of question in mind.. Could this clog fuel filters and injectors? I’ve read that the impurities from brake fluid and chips of steel/metal could kill your engine controls.. The heavy diesel equipment running oily smell from the exhaust could be a sign of exhaust and engine problems...This message has been edited. Last edited by: AR, | |||

If you are sure the used motor oil does not contain anything harmefull like antifreeze or brake fluid all that is needed is to filter it well and blend it with diesel and/or RUG, some folks are using 20% rug only. THIS LINKS TO a discussion about blending Used Motor OIl as fuel. Another discussion about used motor oil. And another discussion. | |||
