Hey Guy's,
I just want to give you a brief history of my single tank MB and the wax, aglae, .... whatever it is problem.

I ran a blend w/ gas and/or diesel and WVO for one full year with no problems at all. Last year about this time of the year I started clogging the clear prefilter about ever 20 or 50 miles of driving on the interstate. It was a very expensive headache.
I eventually pulled the tank and used Clorox, a pressure washer, and other cleaners to try to get the crap out of there
Then I had these pieces of the remnants going through the lines and plugging filters throughout the winter.
Now, I bought one of the cleanable 60 micron filters from mercedessource.com and I think it is working good. Only about 500 miles on it so far so I am not sure yet.

OK, so now with the history of the problems from last summer. Fastforward to now.
For about the past 2 months I have been noticing this rapid growth of this red stuff in the link above. The stuff from last year was kinda brownish-white on the filler neck and cap but it feels like it is the same stuff.

I have used several of the algaecide treatments with no real positive results.
I am now using Biobor and I don't think it is helping.

I really don't want to have to pull the tank again but I also don't want to clog filters every 20 miles all during the summer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Guys,
Zack Smith

I've found that a little gasoline with wvo,keeps it from coming back.Like 5%.

I have not tested it for moisture lately.
I will do this tomorrow using the hot pan test.

I generally let my oil settle for 2-3 months and then only pump off of the top 2/3rds.
I do not heat up the oil for dewatering. The oil that I use is very clear and does not get any rain water. It is changed frequently.

Should I add heat to fully dewater?

OK. I just ran a hot plate test and I do not think that the oil passed the test.
I put a spoon full of oil onto a frying pan that sat for 2 min on high, the frying pan started to smoke and then I poured the spoon onto the pan. It crackled and bubbled some.

To dewater I am planning on using 2-1000 watt 120 volt heaters.
I will leave them on for a few hours. What is a good temp and time frame to shoot for when I am dewatering this oil that has little to no free standing water in it?
