Re: Jockeying for a sticky note post

I have looked into lots and lots of oil dumpsters, barrels and vaults and have never seen crisco at room temps. AS far as hard to work with, I do not understand at all. You need to heat the oil to 130 degrees to process it, so heat it and process it. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

I too have looked in a lot of dumpsters, and I have found that the fast food restaurants (in this area at least) just don't have good looking oil. I also know from reading tons of posts that people tend to see out the higher quality oil/non-hydro oil.
I wrote that thinking about the WVO process... hydrogenated oil is harder to work with because it turns to damned near solid when you are trying to pump it into your tank. Temperature cools down a bit, and you have to find a way to heat it up just to move it into your vehicle. Royal pain.
I am sorry... I wasn't thinking about the BioDiesel apsect when I wrote that part. If you want to write up a quick diddy, I'll amend that paragraph to include the BioDiesel stuff.
To that end, as I stated previously, I am LIGHT in BioDiesel knowledge, as I chose the WVO route. Anyone who wants to write up a few FAQ blurbs on the BioD side... that would be great!
