Nope. I'm probably one of the worst. I hate wating for things.

 

OilGuy;
I have read every post on this thread. I can hardly wait for your report on how this fuel works in your truck. If you have a positive report I'll be buying the plans. THANK YOU for taking the heat in this thread has given out. It is threads like this that have kept me from posting very much about WVO. Keep up the good work.

200 miles and the truck is still running! I don't notice anything different as far as Mileage > Smell > Power > Sound > Smoke... so I will keep going.

I'll believe it when I "see" it.

Not being negative, just realistic. Like we have said before... There "shouldn't" be any problem with taking a picture of the fuel at the point that it comes out of your machine. Don't take a picture of the whole machine if you don't want too. Just the point of the fuel "drop"

If you can't do that then I'm not buying your story.

Like my grandfather always said.... "If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is"

Good deal.

Oilguy,

I'm curious did your fuel making process every work out?

 

Hey Winkle- Read three posts above your own

 

Nice idea if it works...the page on Ebay shows the item is now closed...let us know if it works and how hard it was to build...

 

McDiesel,

I saw that post, But I wondering if Oilguy got his big still going.

 

I took today off because of the rain and worked on it.. I have made a lot of changes to make it more automated and effecient. I am going to start it back up tomorrow and see if the changes worked. I will post progress.

Oilguy...I've followed this post and now found the guy selling these plans on ebay...now for $99... You've taken some real BS and come out ok...congrats! Now... I'm really close to buying this but...BUT...how big is/does it have to be, to be practical? Can it fit in a 8'x12' shed with some space for storing feed stock oil and finish product and still be worth making and produce 25 - 50 gallons / week or more? How about a 10'x14'? I mean if it won't then I don't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting this thing in my yard even if I buy ten sets of freaking plans ya know! Thanks

 

[B]Too shay Britt thats what I have saying all along. Like my Father always said.... "If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is" Good lyuck Oilguy

 

Deputyski,

I am interested in building a smaller plant, as well. So, I e-mailed Verrall Electrical a few weeks ago to inquire about the size, and this was the response I recieved:

"The plant my dad has built produces 1 gal per hour. (You can run it 24/7 if you wish) There is a drum at one end containing sump oil and a drum at the other end containing the completed diesel. The “X factor” in between is 3ft by 4ft 6 inches."

I hope this helps.

 

Thanks...that does help...now I'm really close...I'll just verify I can get some bunker oil.

 

I've read all the posts and I don't remember if the question of contaminated oil was answered. What if the oil has atf, gear, gasoline, diesel, water, coolant, etc mixed in? Will it still produce clean diesel?

On a side note, I'd imagine that this still produces quite a bit of heat. I wonder how hard it would be to incorporate a heat exchanger into the stack to heat a shop/garage, etc. Use the heat to heat water that is then circulated through a radiant heating system in the floor. Free diesel and free heat. Just alittle electric to run the circulator pump.
