Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 108237, member: 1451"] Rustin? Why? Why would he need to filter, centrifuge or otherwise clean up clean oil? COD-How much oil do you have? Gallons? QTS? If you've got more than 50 gals Id recommend using it at a ratio of 50/50 with #2. Nothing else needed. What Ive found, in my truck mind you, is that more than 50% oil, clean or wmo, and atf is that my truck smells like a gasser that burns oil. Additionally I have found that if the truck is left to idle and the egt's drop there will be a visible haze from the exhaust. This, again, in my experience, continues until the egts come back up during normal driving. Other than that, it just means that you'll use half as much fuel!!! If it gets down below freezing change the ratio to 75/25 in favor of the #2. Im not sure what the outcome would be but I always wondered if you could stay at 50/50 if you used #1 in colder weather. I dipped my toes into burning new oil with no purpose,wmo, and atf. Im not an expert but just barely familiar. I do have a whole semi trailer full of 55gal drums of archer oil that my friends dad never sold and they dont want to use it for anything. I could mix it with my fuel but Im not sure Ill do it.
