I agree...It would be one thing if they had actually done it before and had some knowledge from the experience to share. However, most that turn their noses up at the idea have never even tried it.
I have been collecting used motor oil everytime I service a big rig at work.(I am a Heavy Duty Truck/Diesel Tech). I am working on making a filtering system and will soon be experimenting running different percentages of a UMO/diesel mix. I realize there may be some consequences but thats OK. If it proves to be bad, I will than know for myself. I figure there's not much to lose considering I will be running it in a $500 car...the savings will pay for the car in NO time and after that its money in my pocket. If the injection pump eventually fails than I can use the money I saved on fuel to have it rebuilt. The money saved may justify having to rebuild the pump depending on how often it would need to be done. So at the worst I may break even, but hey, at least its keeping some money out of the BIG oil industry's pockets and thats what I enjoy most about it!!!
