mcdonalds oil

[BassAddict]

Believe it or not, this guy is for real! I've even met him.

He came down to collect some UNFILTERED oil from me, he poured some of it straight from the cubies into a watering can and tipped it straight into his van and off he went! I've no idea how far he got.

It does begger belief how little notice he takes of good advice and then he just ploughs on regardless.

I guess you can lead a horse to water etc

HOLY CRAP! It's real. Alifreddy, please just stick to veg filtering (although you don't even seem to do that). Last thing we all need is an explosion or another fire like you had before. Seriously - be safe and take the advice given when you ask for it.

How comes I get the blame?

It's the big clockwork key sticking out of your back that gives it away!

Are you implying that I'm a windup merchant or that I'm so old and decrepit I actually work by clockwork?

Unsurprisingly ... both caps fit!

alifreddy ...

Having read your various posts it's evident that you will not produce viable biodiesel.  As pointed out above, many people have tried to assist you with advise which you seem to ignore or are unable to understand.

Making biodiesel is a dangerous process both in terms of the chemicals employed and the equipment used.  The best advise that can be offered, and I think most members will agree, is to stop trying to make biodiesel before you have an accident injuring yourself and those around you.  Stick to running on veg. that way the only thing you're putting at risk is your engine.

IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW ANY OTHER ADVISE, PLEASE AT LEAST HEED THE ABOVE.

I wholeheartedly agree with this post, please please please stop before you hurt yourself or others.

You certainly don't work by clockwork, you were born well before the spring was invented.

the problem I was having was no clear separation of bio and glycerol I added the amount needed but it wouldn't show any glycerol. I will do a 27/3 test to see what happens.

if you leave veg oil to settle I read you don't need to filter and I only poured the tops of cans in .incidentally the oil he sold me was full of water and I had to sell it on cos it was so rubbish so don't come on here and take the piss

So you do read? Any you believe everything you read?

I give up.

Bring back Millbot.

don't come on here and take the piss

noone will take the piss (at least not in anything other than jest) if you dont take the piss out of them by asking for their help, and then just repeatedly ignoring what they say, and asking for help again.

in any situation, be it here, or in the rest of life, people have patience, but its when that patience is taken advantage of that people get sick of the situation.

for example -

remember to blank the fluid before adding the oil.

the wiki will, im sure, tell you more about blanking.

blank?

i went to the effort of explaining where you could read more, so why are you asking me that?

You ask stuff again and again, people put the time in to answer you, and half the time it seems you cant even be bothered to read or follow their answer.

So, really, who is the one coming on here and taking the piss?

[julianf]

My advice to you (assuming its worth my time even typing it?) is to start over -

a) Ask whatever you want, with enough detail for people to work with.
b) Read the reply
c) If questions are asked of you (which they will be if you ask crap hollow questions), answer them before asking another question.
d) Follow the advice given (this is optional - but if you don't follow it, make it clear why you didn't and what you did instead BEFORE asking the same or another question again!)

If you don't follow the above, you will find that people get sick of you, and, unfortunately, you wont get any benefit here.
If you do follow the above, you'll not find anyone "taking the piss" at all.

ps.

Just for me (as im trying to help you!) - can you confirm you have read the above, before asking another question?

[alifreddy]

I did a 27/3 test and a bright orange haze and only a little oil at bottom seems not fully reacted yet.

I read the above thanks. I added 10 litres of glycerol and going to heat and mix for an hour

Fixed your photo.

Please read this: http://www.biopowered.co.uk/wiki/Posting_photos

But you obviously haven't read this. I'm not fixing it again.

I take it the big jar is the '10/90' so if it's not all reacted how do you know how much remains to be converted? Using a jar is guesswork isn't it or did you measure quantities?

This is fascinating stuff
