You might have to invest in a WVO centrifuge to more efficiently remove the soot, debrit, water from the oil if the failure is due to the waste oil, get the optional heater if you do. Keep up the good work, I will be watching and subscribing and look forward to your progress.
What ever you do, don't add gasoline to the mixture. Gasoline is a light petroleum product which flashes too quickly when injected, try thining out the WMO with Kerosene or diesel as they won't pre-detonate like gasoline does. By adding any amount of gasoline your lowering the "Flash Point" of the fuel mixture which is really bad for diesel engines. Aloha....................
Let's talk about this. They are both petroleum products. Used oil certainly can't have the same flash point as diesel fuel can it? I hypothesize that adding the gasoline just changes the flashing of the oil to hopefully be closer to that of diesel fuel. Also, in the concentrations that are injected, it is not likely to reach the needed "low density limit" for combustion, if it did separate. I have never heard any pinging. I don't think that I have a predetination problem. 🤷
@@Brandonlexx1 If anything gasoline is designed to resist compression ignition so too much in the mix will cause it to cough and sputter like a very cold motor because it is not able to ignite all the fuel. The oil and diesel both are "designed to" or ignite well via compression/heat so there shouldnt be any appreciable delay in ignition timing after injection between the two. I would be curious to see what the build up on the pistons looks like if you run waste oil as a "Lubrication additive" say 25% or less of total fuel volume with the remainder being diesel. I know several folks with older diesels that have run that way for years with no loss of performance or damage to the engines.
@@danielh4995 I am going to have to disagree. Gasoline is significantly more susceptible to combustion under heat and pressure than is diesel. This is the reason why diesel engines have higher compression ratios. Also why we have high octane fuels. The higher the octane, the more stable and less susceptible to combustion or predetination. Hope that makes sense.
A cracked piston always caused by bad injector ( leaking ). I have seen people use used oil it causes the injectors to leak due to the soot in the oil. Not a good an idea for long term .
Would there be a way to remove the the soot or dirt thats in the waste motor oil? or would it be a component of thee oil that diesel fuel doesnt have? Like would motor oil use sulfur and not the diesel fuel? (im using that as an example because ibdont know fuel chemistry but reverse engineering fuel is a good start imo) And learning how to utilize certain processes to "refine" the mixture may come a long way Especially during this "Diesel recession" thats beginning to kick off.

Thank you for your service!!! 😂 Now we know what happens!!!
😂😂😂
This is a cool series I have been following. I really think cutting with diesel instead of gasoline will help a lot. Any chance of doing that?
A little propane injection, clean that right up
Or maybe cng? 🧐🤔

Get a lift pump, filter down before adding it to the tank. Can get a centerfuge to spin water out th oil also
A cracked piston always caused by bad injector ( leaking ). I have seen people use used oil it causes the injectors to leak due to the soot in the oil. Not a good an idea for long term .
I have probably done$10,000 worth of damage... But how often could you replace injectors if you never had to pay for fuel? 🤷

These are all great questions. I'm not a chemist... No idea!
