Garages have to pay to have the stuff taken away and if you let it stand for long enough a lot of the carbon drops out. i can not see this being anything like as polluting as the heave oil they use on ships and as you should be able to ensure loads of air it should not produce much smoke once the boiler and "fuel blower" is up to temperature. May have to starts on diesel though. Now we are on low sulphur fuel it should be less acidic than of old. Only draw back I can see (until told different) is the laws about disposing of hazardous waste . You may have to get licensed so you can collect it. Tony Brooks
