I was at a Trucking safety and display a year ago and one of the exhibitors had a filtering system for used motor oil which was then suitable to add to the fuel tanks to be burned as a fuel. Their claim was a system that took all the impurities(carbons) out of it. The oil did look pretty clean! They were talking about increases in power and mileage by adding (and If my memory serves me it was 5% oil). Thus 200 gallons of diesel could have 10 gallons of used refined crankcase oil in it. Many large trucking companies recycle all their motor oil this way. The filtering system was quite expensive but with large quantities of used oil available it would soon pay for itself. I would have some fears about using straight crankcase oil because of the impurities, ruining a pump or clogging injectors..anyway its done all the time
