You can also blend in your used oil drained from the crankcase… we did it all the time with our 18 wheelers in fleet operations..

Every time I had a load of fuel delivered, I’d have the shop dump the waste oil tank into the fuel delivery…

I knew a guy that would mix filtered waste ATF waste engine oil, kerosene and even used gear oil into the tank of his '92 Dodge with the Cummins mill. He called it "Old Smokie".

Not a diesel fan so I gotta ask, can you really run a diesel on vegetable oil? It kinda seems like real diesel fuel might have have additives for lubricity or something.

A friend has a 12v Cummins Ram and several years ago, he built a 'still' for making bio-diesel. Not just filtering used cooking oil and dumping it in the tank, but a chemical process with lye and methanol. It was great when restaurants would give him their old oil for free, but after a while, other people caught on and started hitting the restaurants up for the oil. People started paying more and more for the used oil and the process lost its value. Whenever I drove the truck, the exhaust smelled like whatever had been cooked in the oil. I never knew if it was going to be fish, chicken or fries and driving the truck made me hungry. One neat side effect was that instead of 'rolling coal' when accelerating, the smoke was light gray and disappeared quickly.
