In Reply to: waste oil and diesel fuel posted by boberjagel on January 15, 2016 at 21:27:22:

I know of one repair shop that has a used oil tank that is used to fuel a diesel pickup. Old oil furnace fuel tank with a wide funnel with a filter on top for the used oil to be poured into, second filter inside tank fill neck assembly and a third filter on fill hose connection at bottom of tank. Pickup is a late 90s GMC, another small dump truck that gets some of the used oil has a 6-71 Detroit in it. Both truck have dual tanks, the main tank gets the used oil, second tank usually gets light diesel in winter for purposes, Both trucks have a extra filter in fuel line setup before the main filters. Shop does tuneups and oil changes, has a lot of used oil to burn, pickup did something like 25,000 miles on $15.00 diesel 2 years back, annual extra filter change. JD 720D or 730D diesel tractor some years back on neighbors farm ran a lot of used oil- the fuel tank setup had initial filter and fill hose filter also. Couple different furnace rigs for used oil use- a simple gravity feed 'pot helmet' burner unit derived from a old military design can heat a garage in winter so you don't freeze while fixing tractor with snowblower or plow, have to prime the burner and watch it a few minutes but was about $400.00 5 years ago. Electric blower motor, force feed control and 25% fuel oil mixed with used oil that has passed through a filter was in another shop close by to where I used to live- $1000.00 for the adapter parts, filters, extra tank, controls over the price of the regular fuel oil furnace, paid for itself first winter that was rather colder than average, $700.00 savings or so a year afterwards.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
