Dennis, I've heard little about filtering and then re-using once used
motor oil. Have  you heard of this? If used vegetable oil, then why not
used motor oil? From what I understand vegetable oil like from
restuarants, etc, has to be diluted with about 15% kerosene to get a
useable mix. Why not used motor oil. After filtering, adding kerosene,
it should be good to go.

What say you? Anybody?

Regards,
