yesterday i think it was nuetral talkin about mayo in the fuel
i got the same thing with fuel i accidently heated to 220 and was changed in coor. adding water turned it to mayo. i think it was a mon or di glyceride thing. for the hell of it i heated the mayo and got a nice light colored oil, but it clouded at 90f. pl. sp ot wpi;d fo;terof that wasnecessary,. but what should be known is that i accidently heateted the ester to 240, and what was passing over the electric heating elements was higher, carmalizing it. water wash produced mayonayse, which when heated produced a light colored oil that cloaed at room temp.
so was it full of glycerides that were created b temps over 180f????
probably. it shows that this stuff is temp sensitive. it makes merit of mixing at 120f and keeping it there. cost effectiveness says keep it there too!
