I've tried it. Just mixed 2 gal with about 25 gal of diesel. No problems but I only did it once. I need a better filter before I do it again. I'm just gonna burn it when I go on road trips (fuel is company paid during the week) so I don't have to buy fuel.

There a lot of guys running straight waste trans fluid and have been for a long time. I don't think I would feel comfortable doing it all the time but for what I am going to use it for I don't think I'm going to have any issues. There is several threads about it on here though.

There was a thing on here a few weeks ago that people were talking about all the stuff other than diesel you can run in your trucks. but now i can't find it but i know they said as long as you filter it you can.

I know truck drivers do it all the time but there motors are a little different than ours

You can run waste motor oil, just run it thru a filter first, I use a 2 micron filter and then run 20% or so...
