Good luck and have fun,

I think that were you to take on the challenge of making this amount of fuel
yourself, you would find yourself very busy. I won't discourage you, but
just know that it is indeed time consuming. But you would save a HUGE
amount of money!.

I believe that it is unmixed, but I should probably check to make
