Anybody burning waste oil or making their own biodiesel??

[scouthead]

are their still co-ops or hippie's making their own fuel in the so-cal area?? (no offense intended if you are a hippy and you burn your own fuel lol)

have some fry oil in Norwalk ca - would like to donate to somebody that could use it. i havent had a diesel for a while and am kind of disconnected from the local scene.

posted in the freebies forum.

I think Kommiefornia made it illegal to make your own bio diesel. I mean how do they tax that, can't have people making stuff we can't tax. Or might blow up a neighborhood.... Oh wait LAPD Bomb squad beat us to it.

I used to frequent the steel soldiers forum, and guys would use that in the m35's. May post up there if nobody here takes you up on it.

I have run filtered used ATF in my diesels, works very well.

Bossman set up an account with a commercial removal service. They don’t have to pay, but they do have to pump their own oil into caddy’s for the delivery guy

From time to time, had a water heater I used to "cook" the biodiesel.

Not endorsing illegal actions but.... enforceability is a valid concern sometimes

When you drive by the chp smelling like french fry frier, I think they'll know.
I haven't smelled french fry aroma since the law was passed.

CHP is going to pull you over just to see whats cooking? -they would prob just get hungry and get in line over at IN-N-OUT?


Law enforcement is so overrun and understaffed everywhere i go- if they aren't on some kind of awful call, or manhandling disgusting combative drug addict's... It's going to be a while before they have time to respond to property crimes, misdemeanors, or enforce the rest of the laws and codes on the books

In the early 2000s I put a 6.2 diesel in my 80 Olds Cutlass. All of my used motor oil while I drove that got filtered through a 1 micron filter and dumped right into the tank. I put about 60k miles on that combo and burnt who knows how much oil through it.

Was it originally a 5.7 diesel?

Factory Olds 260 V8, then a 468 BBC that I raced for a few years. Got bored of that and swapped in the 6.2 with a 700R4, got low 30s MPG, best/most fun engine it ever had, wish I still had it.
