WVO network....

Someone here brought up the idea of having a WVO network. Out on the road with your diesel and like to save on fuel? Call a mercedesshop buddy and come pick up some oil.

Well, I have found a few more sources for my oil and I have an abundance. I am picky about what kind of oil I pick up. It only comes right from the fryer so the chance of water contamination is small. I prefilter through a bag type paint filter and then through a pillowcase. It is crude but it works. I have put a few thousand miles running this oil, mixing upto 70% oil/30% diesel. I started running oil on my old filters and haven't had to replace them yet. I have about 45 gallons sitting in wait. I put my car away for the winter so I will have plenty in stockpile until I get my car out in the spring.

Just some good will toward other dieselheads.
