I been using diesel..
I have a home made washer from a small pump, a 55 gal drum, a piece of garden hose, length of pipe, and a "flexible" plumbing hose and a few small pieces of angle iron.
I welded some angle at the "top ring" drilled holes in the lid, set the lid (trimmed with garden hose so it fits tight to the barrel walls) on top the angle, with the pump down in the diesel. I also wrapped hose around the top of the barrel to protect from a sharp edge. It's a little short for a tall guy, but I got bout $20 into the pump, pipe, etc. and about 2 hours time.
I used diesel because I had about 30 gallons of bio fuel go "stale", and I couldn't give it away, so I been using it for this.. When it's all gone and too bad to "clean" I may go to mineral spirits..
Oh, and I just use the "dirty" stuff on a brush fire..
