Waste Oil Filtering / Sooty smoke?
« on: December 23, 2009, 12:14:10 pm »
  Will filtering oil help reduce the dirty smoke from my drip system? I climbed up on the roof to install a chimney cap  and there is a ridiculous amount of soot in my chimney, I could have grabbed a handfull of it! It is light and fluffy kind of like the soot from when you start an acetylene torch with no oxygen. hopefully someone else encountered this, i realize drip systems arent popular around here but I am on a quest to pefect this one, lol!

Waste Motor Oil / Burning different types of oil
« on: December 11, 2009, 03:41:38 pm »
I just got 30 gallons of used deisel motor oil, rotella. It doesnt burn nearly as hot as the stuff i've been getting from my mechanic buddy. which would be a combination of everything that comes out of a car, I'm going to add a little kero to help it out. Has anyone else had this problem when using one typ of oil? and is there any typ that works best?

Waste Motor Oil / Black deisel
« on: December 10, 2009, 09:55:45 am »
  Does anyone have any experience with making and using black deisel? it looks promising. I'm thinking of getting a desiel truck and trying it out. They say you filter the crap out of the oil and then cut it with desiel or kerosene, and it is ready to run.

  Hi, i just stumbled upon this forum and it seems very helpfull! I just built a simple drip system with a plenum around it and an intake in one room and vent in another room and it seems to be pretty darn good at heating my house. I will take some pics and post them in the next few days.
