Have a happy 4th July Y'all

My Canola oil experiment. I'm getting used Canola oil that spends about a month in a deep frier making french fries and onion rings. The cook does not uses hot water to flush out the deep frier so I don't have to seperate H2O.

Have added 4 1/2 gallons of filtered canola oil to the front tank's 12 gallons of diesel with no negative results yet. When running mix motor seems not as loud.

I start and shut off the the motor with the rear tank with 100% diesel. I do not switch over the the mix till the till the motor warms up and switches back to rear tank. I filter the canola into a large glass jar so I can see the oil. Do not plan to use canola oil in winter.
You tube has a bunch of videos of people runing older diesel motors on 100% vegi oil.
Check out myth busters on you tube.

Will keep forum posted on my results.
