Diesel Purge is Great!

A few days ago I ordered a can of Lubro-Moly Diesel Purge. I had read
about how good it was supposed to be. Yesterday afternoon the UPS man
delivered it. Later in the afternoon I went out and used it according
to the instructions. After I used the Diesel Purge, I noticed that the engine seemed to be idling better, but I knew the real test would be this morning when
the engine was cold.

I just got back from a trip down to Wal-mart and the change in the car
is amazing. No nailing, smoother idling and it seems to have more
power. It is hard to believe that 500 ml of Diesel Purge could
make that much difference in an engine, but seeing is believing.

Hwy 11 Antique Alley Sale

Friday I went from Trussville, AL to Chattanooga, TN on the Hwy 11 Antique Alley Sale, or as we call it around here, 'the springtime sale.' That distinguishes it form the big one in the fall, The World's Longest Yard Sale, aka The 450 mile sale or Hwy 127 Corridor Sale. Of course around here (Central Alabama) we call it 'the fall sale.'

I always go the full distance on the WLYS, but have only gone the entire lenght of the Hwy 11 sale once. This year I only went for one day on the Hwy 11 sale as I had no one to keep the dogs. Crowds and vendors seemed to be off a bit, I suspect due to higher fuel prices. It will take a while for folks budgets to accomodate the higher fuel cost.

If anybody out there took in the other parts of this years Hwy 11 sale, I would love to hear from you. Anything happening between Birmingham and Meridian?

First Filtering Today

Today I put the 32 inch 0.5 micron bag filter that I got from Greasel
in my plastic 55 gallon barrel and poured in the first of the oil that
I got from Beverly's. The oil was prefiltered through a 100 micron
poly filter first into a 5 gallon pail before pouring it into the
Greasel filter. I am still working on the 55 gallon steel barrel and
filter and hope to have it set up next week. I intend to incorporate
the 5 gallon pail and 100 micron filter in to that setup as a
prefilter.

Filtering Oil

Still working on filtering the oil I am collecting. Ordered Dana
Linscotts plans for the hand pump filtering system. Just about got it
set up using a plastic barrel. Also working on a different setup using
a smaller bag filter in a closed pvc container. It is based on a
modification of a design that I saw on one of the forums. If it works,
I will post a diagram somewhere on the net.

Another Oil Article by George Crispin

Last month (April 6th) I listed a link to an article by George Crispin about Professor Gold's theory of the origins of oil. Well Geroge is at it again. This article gives additional information about alternate theories of the origin of oil. I find this very thought provoking.
