[Vwdiesel] Waste engine oil

[mikitka]

I have read on the SVO site that long term effects of running SVO and WVO
straight that in time it will wear out the IP and injectors faster than
normal. I have been reading up on Biodiesel and just about got my "Appleseed
Reactor" together. I have a line on WVO just a few blocks from the house.

Supposedly can cause problems with coking on the injectors, but I ran my old
1.6D engine on 1/2 qt. of old oil per tankfull for 
several years w/o any adverse affects that I could tell.  At that rate it
would burn an oil change worth of used oil every 3000 
miles or so.
