how much is one??
From 40 quid BUT I doubt that would filter the water from the oil Works by drawing water through the filter. Can you recommend one?
would still leave the petrol tho

This would be the best system to do it right, removes all water,dirt,antifreeze, petrol everthing thats not drain oil. All things have a particle size and this separates by particle size. Google it up and do read on it quite interesting.
From a engine that used it and no longer needs itwhere do i get used engine oil??
My local garage has to pay to dispose of used engine oil. Last time I asked it costs £95 to have a 200 litre drum taken away and they generate more than 1000 litres a week servicing cars. Guess what? If you ask nicely they will let you take it for nowt. Its where I get mine from. I even fill up their biccy tin once a month just to keep them sweet.From a engine that used it and no longer needs it

You could pay the duty on waste engine oil and use it as a fuel in a land rover,but it does not work.
With in a tank full of driving with a 300 tdi your injectors will have a lump of carbon built up on them making your engine smoke and run crappy.
If you take the injectors out and clean the ends they will crap up with the next tank of diesel and waste engine oil.
It's a waste of time .
I have used waste engine oil and diesel mixes in all sort of diesels but not any used on the road but I can tell you from real life experience it does not work in any of the engines I have used it in ( INC 300 TDI)
All carboned up the injector tips.
A maxium of 10% is all the miltary use and less for long term blending.
Think about it, if it worked it would be a world wide way of saving fuel and waste engine oils are not any thing like waste veg oil in the way they burn and the carbon that is produce as a result of burning.
I am that sure of my results I would be up for a Landyzone test with other people on the forum to put this one to rest.
The results then would be there for every one to see.
The garages i've spoke to tip everything into a 1000ltr tank and said help yaself, i was thinking of buying a centrifuge (£500) to make sure there was no water or antifreeze left in, it won't remove the petrol but it should save me thinning it down
£500
I look forward to hearing your results of running waste engine oil :doh:
Don't forget to pay the duty on it as well
