Thanks Jon. My tanks are now pretty clean and I am not
cleaning any more filters. I have been in touch with the guys at
Greasecar.com as well as greasel.com. The racor heated
filters seem to be the best. mel -----Original Message----- Mel, Your
fuel filter must be have no bypass ability, should be of the same micron as the
original fuel filter for your vehicle and all of the fuel that is used should
be pre filtered to a micron smaller than the fuel filter. As an
example my original fuel filter is 10 micron so my new filter for vegetable oil
is 10 micron and all my fuel is pre filtered through paper then through a one
half micron filter sock. This assures my filter will last much longer
because the filter clogging takes place over a 55 gallon drum, not inside my
fuel filter. There
are filters for sale at: and Do not
use an engine lubricating oil filter ............... most will bypass and allow
gunk to flow to your injectors, use a fuel filter. The secret to running
on SVO is overkill on the pre filtering. Depending on your climate there
are heating options available on some filter styles. I need all the heat
I can get here in Vermont. I like running SVO because I need no lye or
methanol. The gunk from filtering gets pot burned in my stove for cooking
and heat. Hope
that helps. Jon
