When you do the titration you are finding the concentration of OH...both
potassium and sodium hydroxide.. I dont think there is a problem in this
case.

You should use a 10 micron filter, at minimum, on the engine, like the
one on our basic two-tank kit. You should prefilter to less than that.

Legumes are, but castor beans are not true beans and are not nitrogen
