WMO + Methanol + Sodium Hydroxide = ?

Right I have the above ingredents and Im thinking of making bio diesel but with out the WVO
Making it from waste engine oil
And Im wondering if it would work in the same way
Would the methanol thin the engine oil out to diesel type?

Nope. You can make biodiesel with those chemicals but WVO has to be your feed stock.

WMO can be processed into diesel by cracking it.

There are alot of guys running WMO as is just cleaning it up by heating & settling or centrifuging & then adding either gasoline or kerosene to thin it out. If you decide to go this route do alot of reading first. It is not a proven method yet IMHO but alot guys are running it & appear to be having some success. Your rolling the dice a bit if you go this route.
