Well, there is a ton of different methods used to filter WVO. Many use a centrifuge style filter, but they are expensive.

I use the "settling" method. First I let the oil containers sit untouched (preferably in the sun) for a few days before pumping through a 50 micron filter and water separator then it goes through a 2 micron post pump filter and into a black barrel. Once the barrel if full I will sometimes add regular unleaded gas (rug), Power Service's conditioner, or whatever else I got laying around...lol. Let that sit a few more days and pump strait into the truck using a 2 micron filter.

Been doing this for the past few years without any problems.

Just noticed your from Palmer, so like me - this can only be done for a few months before temps get close to freezing. You dont want to get caught with this stuff in your fuel tank when it gets cold......that would be no fun.
