I don't want to draw attention to what we do and just want to be left alone and keep running this stuff as fuel for personal use
No way I'd want to go into business selling the stuff, mainly for this reason, but I also can't imagine what it would require to be even a tiny bit "legit" about it. I'm sure any other combustible oil will fade out the same way WVO has, but the longer I can quietly do it in my area the better!
I always have a wanted ad posted on CL saying I'll take any kind of oil. Got a few big scores that way in December that we still have about 150 gal left of, but I haven't gotten any calls in months. I've been looking, no one is giving it away and there are probably 5 other WMO wanted ads in my area, some offering to pay as high as $.50-1/gal!!! Hoping that fades away once it's warm and people aren't using it for heating.
Need to start pursuing other bulk sources though... two 12 valves and a Mercedes is chewing through it pretty fast. I am looking into getting mineral oil from transformer repair/decomissioning places.
Edit: not that I'm that concerned, but is this part of the forum visible to non-members? (ie Google searchers and whatnot)
