Re: Filter or screen before pump ???

Some are just using some window screen for the rough filtering.

For my biodiesel processor, I've been using pieces of nylon stocking over the hose ends for a form of rough filtering.

Some are pouring the WVO through a filter made from old bluejeans, it seems to work very well.

Thank you, Spencnaz, but I realized I wasn't clear enough with my question. I meant the pump on the truck.
I edited my question.

My mistake. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to really filter that oil before you put in your truck.
