None. I’ve owned 3 Powerstrokes, two farm tractors, and one VW Golf…all diesel. Yes, I’d run an old technology diesel engine in the tractors on your shit. And I might run that shit in an oil home heating unit. But not in the modern engines.
I don’t have “a” degree…I have two.
The waste oil has a high ash content and will plug particulate filters. The contaminates in waste oil will attack metals in the fuel system. Gasoline mixed with oil is a flammable (Flash point below 125F) liquid; diesel is a combustible liquid and somewhat safer
You’re right…I have no experience in running shitty diesel substitute in modern diesels… because won’t risk the bad experiences
Filters get clogged? You mean do their job and easily maintained? Most people who run alt-fuels add more filtration to the system. Obviously the less refined the more itll "attack" the system, but any Jerry can filter a liquid, and the process for turning unrefined waste oil into biodiesel is about as complicated as making moonshine.
You don’t know what a diesel particulate filter is,do you. It’s in the exhaust system. And for a Powerstroke, it’s “easily maintained” for $5,280 plus labor. That’s wat a new one costs.
That’s why you’re nonchalant about your claims..because you don’t know what you’re talking about or the damage someone could do by following your ignorant advice.
bro, i know what a DPF (diesel piss (urea-based) filter) is. Its easily maintained by regularly changing the piss juice. Again, any Jerry trying to run alt fuels will have installed other forms of filtration long before the DPF has a chance to clog, and theyre probably running a non DPF engine setup anyhow.
are you an engineer or a naysayer who doesnt feel comfortable modifying a stock vehicle? (just joshin with ya bud)
