Wow, you guys are doing a whole series on the black oil process! That is awesome. Thank you for making the real life videos. Having these video series out on YT and the public domain puts the whole black oil industry a step ahead. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make that happen.
I’ve used garbage pumps from harbor freight, they can be quite the headache to prime sometimes. You really can’t beat a gear pump, it’s the type of pump most aviation engines use for their oil pumps. This video is amazing, you are doing our generation a solid, keep up the good work brother.
Might think about a check valve right at the end of the pick up tube. Wishing you guys would sponsor my channel. I'm building and designing a diesel electric hybrid motorcycle and I will soon be selling my Prius and buying a 93-98 Ford diesel to run on waste oil. I'd like to build an on board filteration setup in the bed of the truck so dirty oil can go in and clean oil can come out. Upgrade the front tank to the 60 gallon tank and the rear 12 gallon tank to the 38 gallon tank. I work in a shop with 25 other guys most of which have shops at home and plenty of waste oil to give me for free. My current filter setup is EZ bucket top filters. 600, 400, 200, 100, 75, and 55 microns. I stack them all on top of each other and pour the oil through. I then let it sit for a week. I then open the valve 3" from the bottom of the bucket to drain it through my 25 micron sock filter that is dropped through the middle of the lid of the bucket. Then that sits for a week... Then 15, 10, 5, 1, then .5 micron buckets. Then eventually into the 55gallon drum which I fill to 50 gallons then add 5 gallons of gasoline and stir with a 3' long 2" garden auger which fits through the hole of the drum so I'm sure it's mixed properly. My first batch has been sitting for months, my second barrel is almost full. I am predicting around 150mpg on my motorcycle based on gearing, weight and engine loads. I will have the factory fuel tank that came mounted on the engine holding 1 gallon of diesel, then once the engine has warmed up I will switch over to waste oil. Hope to hear from you guys. I think at one point I was talking to you or your dad or boss whoever via text about this. I have more oil supply than I can filter, burn or handle not to mention I have a personal friend that only does transmissions and said he has a full tote for me. I'd be happy to promote your product in whatever videos I make. Do you think a 12v transfer pump would do the job for on board filteration? I was planning on running an on board centrifuge, AND a series of filters. And when the "clean" tank is full it will have a spill over back into the dirty tank. A carpenters style latter rack covered in solar panels to charge the batteries that run the centrifuge while I'm parked at work.

Make life a little easier by adding an elbow on to the nipple on discharge side of the valve when you are collecting oil.

Not merely most aviation engines, but nearly every piston engine, from motorcycles to locomotives.
Would love to hear from you guys!

@@TACOMASRT5 that's a good thought 🤔
