    Centrifuge not complete, need to have an inner wall welded in to create the catch basin for the bowl.

    Currently using a nested set of sock filters 100, 10, and 1 um and gravity filter WVO cold. Then blend it with diesel/kerosen/gasoline depending the temp. In the summer run about 1/3 diesel and 2/3 WVO. Runs well.
    Setting up the next diesel with a heat exchanger to pre-heat it before it hits the IP. Your 7.3L is likely more finicky than my 6.2L.
    Waiting to get the centrifuge up before using WMO.
    Should with low flow rate, 2-3 gal an hour, remove particles down to < 0.1 um.

    Then I'd be looking at WVO and WMO.
    Oh, that's right, that's what that centrifuge is for in my garage!
    The VW Rabbit and the 6.2L GMC box truck both use diesel!
    Rabbit 45+ and box truck 10-11 MPG.

    Only got 41 MPG on its first 200 miles on old gas.
    Hope to do better when it has all fresh gas.
