Reviews

"I am loving that pump! I set it up, the Greasebeast started immediately pumping oil into my old Mercedes. WOW! I've filtered 20 gallons so far this week. It goes so much faster than those sock filters, and I don't spill oil! I'm so glad I found your product -- it's great." - Ceolist, Philidelphia Orchestra

Benefits of Inline Oil Filtration?

Liberate your tailpipe and your wallet from dirty and expensive fuels. Save time, money, and patience with inline filtration. Tens of thousands of gallons of vegetable oil have been filtered into fuel using these filters. After trying it the hard way - gravity filtration with a sock filter - you may come to appreciate inline filtration.

Long Filter Life?

GreaseBeast Filter life depends on the quality of oil that you are filtering. Each lasts between 15-75 gallons; for us it usually averages about 60. Choose your Veg Oil well to extend their life the longest. With a good source on a warm day we have gotten 120+ gallons!

What is Nominal Rating?

These veg oil filters are nominally rated, so catch 95% of particles. Passing the oil through 2 filters is a good idea. Whenever using vegetable oil as fuel it is also important to use an onboard fuel filter.

What is a Micron?

A micron is a thousandth of an inch. Fuel filters onboard most vehicles are 5 to 15 micron.

What is the GreaseBeast Filtration method?

GreaseBeast Filtration refers to using an inline system to filter vegetable oil for fuel. Learn about how it works in the WVO Filtration Guide. Find filtration components to build your own such as pumps, filtration canisters, mesh screens, waterblockers.

Oil Source?

Finding free fuel is an exciting prospect, and it is a skill that anyone can learn. There is bit of a learning curve, but as any veggie enthusiast will tell you - research first, try it out, be persistent, and you ll be able to spot and filter good veggie like a pro! Generally Asian buffet places are golden. Read about where to look and how to ask for it in the Guide, and watch a video showing an oil hunt.

Filtering in Winter?

Oil filters best when it is thin. When it is cooler or cold out the oil becomes thicker which makes filters unnecessarily clog quicker and pumps work too hard. To mitigate this collect during the day when the sun has the opportunity to warm the container, or use a "bucket heater" to warm the oil up first.

Converting a Vehicle to SVO?

Vegetable Oil as Fuel works best in a fully converted diesel. Find full SVO Conversion Kits for Cars, Trucks, Semis, and more.

 
"the Diesel engine can be fed vegetable oils which 
may become in the course of time as important as petroleum"

-Rudolf Diesel, Diesel Engine Inventor, 1911

Handling Oil?

Vegetable Oil can be very sticky on any surface it comes in contact with. It will stain clothing and fabric, as well as garages, driveways, and wood. Be aware of this when filtering as minor precautions can save you alot of mess. For instance, wear gloves, wait for drips to fall before moving hoses, and put down cardboard or a plastic sheet around an area that you use to filter - or choose an area that is okay to get messy, or can be power-washed to be cleaned. Throwing on a jumpsuit or wearing clothes that can get dirty is a good precaution. Read more in the WVO Filtration Guide.
