I drained my differential (on the AKP-Wagen) last nigght - looked like thick chocolate milk abd smelled disgusting. Filtered it and dumped it in the tank. Also filtered a mix of used VO and bacon grease. I took a 50/50 mix of the VO-bacon grease and D2 and put it in the freezer. It gelled. Added the appropriate amount of GE 8932Q and dumped the whole lot in the tank.
We are now at about 25% recylced oil in the mix. The engine is incredibly quiet. Smokes a fair amount at start up, but id fine once warm (which still amazes me). As soon as I move (close today, if they get the title right), I will order 1,000 liters of "a-l sauce" and start more carefully measuring my oil-diesel proportions, will also set up the large qty filter system at this time and start keeping more detailed records. Diesels are amazing...wonder what would happen if I put bacon fat in my wife's Toyota Sienna?... :-) Christopher --- LT Don <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Chris, > > I'd suggest an email to Virginia Tech.
