I'm up to a gallon every ~200 miles.....


Driver, how much do you sell at that price? I ask because the most i've paid for my finished fuel was $1.33/gal....

Sometimes I'll simply trade 200 gallons of dirty oil for 100 gallons of clean oil. Haven't tried to sell the oil. I want to keep enough supply to get me through the 2nd Obama administration

Any specific dates. I may be able to make a road trip during the day.....just may have to be back in Auburn by 3pm to pick the kid up from school. Feel like bringing your timing equipment?

I wish i had my own garage, then i could really pile up the oil. As it is I can only make it as i use it.... I have very little reserve...

I don't know what day yet (going to talk about it tomorrow), but i don't think we would be doing it until after 3pm. However, I will probably be in Plainfield in the morning, so if my buddy doesn't mind maybe you could meet at his house.....

Big THANKS to Chris (Otahyoni) for helping me get my pump timed.

I had the truck warmed up once he got to the house. He checked my timing and it was rignt around 3.5 degrees advanced, it ran okay but once Christ adjusted it to 8 advanced, she runs awesome. We jumped in and took it for a short test drive. The shifting is better (thx Chris LMAO) and the ole giel wants to get sideways going down the road. Granted it was raining and theres no bed on the truck.

Thanks again man, I hope that pump does you well.
