How do you get WMO to be the same specific gravity as diesel fuel? The WMO is a thicker, heavier oil and I don't see any way around that except for heating or thinning.

edub32, in my IDI, it will smoke alot at idle with a 50% WMO/50% #2 blend. I'm now running 66% oil and I try not to let it idle too long to avoid smoking people out and building up deposits on the pistons/valves/etc. As far as I can tell it doesn't smoke any when running at road speed.
