i know some guys who run a nightclub in Derby, and they do food, so they have a few barrels of waste veg oil that they need rid of.

they are looking into getting it disposed of professionally, but i think thats going to cost them money.

anyone have any better ideas?

Buy a filter and turn it into fuel for your, errr, space heater :oops:

Need to run it through a 200 micron filter to get the bits out you also need to seperate the water from it and add some sort of thinners (white spirit is sometimes used) some add injector cleaner as well. You'll also be advised to fit an inline fuel heater as well, put it in your tank and run on it, you'll find it'll probably run better and go further.

Lastly don't forget to register and pay the tax of 27p per gallon  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:


Just thought Hope you like chips or donuts because that's what it smells like out the exhaust.

Are you absolutely sure about this? Not something you want to get wrong.

i was thinking of doing this, with filters intended for big diesels, like those in my dads boat.
basically, an electric fuel pump, a water trap, a course gauze type filter and then a finer one, 200 micron as you say.
if i can get the oil for free, i can afford to spend money on the system.

i wouldnt run it 100% during the winter. summer, maybe, but not when its this cold.
