Hi All
A while back I read in a couple of places on the web of a 'farmer' method of filtering used sump oil with a piece of cotton rope. In December, after draining some of the blackest stuff I've ever seen out of my tractor, prior to a rebuild I thought I'd give it a go.
After two and a half months I have a length of soft cotton rope soaked in sump oil (the one you're supposed to wrap around a fence post to keep the the termites at bay) and not even a damp patch in the lower container.
I don't think it was 1st April when I read it, has anyone done it with any success, or am I being overly hasty?
Cheers
Stef
