    Is used engine oil something folks readily want? I usually accumulate 5 or 6 gallons before i take it to the recycler. is that enough to be worthwhile for anyone?

    You can run up to 80% waste oil to 20% diesel fuel in the older cummins and powerstrokes. It smokes a bit and you can't do it during winter because it will gel but it will work just fine. I have a buddy who runs a shop out of his house and that is what he does with his used engine and trans oil. He keeps his powerstroke at about 50/50 which is where I will run it once I pick up another diesel truck. Cut my fuel costs in half.

    Best way to get in to see me at the shop is to call or email Shannon and make an appointment.
