Places that make fuel and gasoline from waste engine oil crack the waste engine oil same process that is used when making fuel or gasoline they don't blend it gasoline, you need a more recent EPA ruling on waste engine oil a 2004 article is not up to date ,
You spill waste oil on the ground they make you dig a 4x4x2 hole for each gal spill and haul the dirt off site to be aired or cooked don't ask how I know this lol

good luck

That sucks!

bummer. Hope that doesn't happen to me. I hate digging holes. $:-\$ In any case, plenty of you wonderful folk have messaged me about your WMO, so I'm good to go for this trip. Thanks all for helping me either get to Florida for cheap, or for helping me murder my engine. Either way, we'll still be friends....promise.

They made me sign a disclaimer. Ok not really. But I met my first nut today...Kurt in Peach Bottom, PA. Blowing my Detroit is totally worth it if I can meet all of these other Busnuts

Scott and Heather:
Not sure it fits your schedule, but this coming weekend a whole passel of bus nuts are gathering in SC. Chance to meet some great people.
Check for an earlier post on this board from Kyle Brandt regarding his 'Non Rally' at Palmetto Cove Camp Ground, near Spartanburg.
You would be welcomed, and there would be a fair amount of interest in your alternative fuel style. Might even be some WMO.

Thanks Mike. We'd be there in a heartbeat (or should I say a piston stroke) if we could. We're not heading out of PA and on to FL until October 16. We actually leave on Friday Oct. 14, head to Ashburn, VA, then on Sunday morning at 10 am we're pushing off to Apopka, FL for the winter. Count us out on this one, but maybe a future one...

BCM rally runs Oct 14-17th and I'm sure there will be left overs a couple days later!

Only 571 Miles from Ashburn and 250 extra miles over the original destination miles!

You just might convince us

Let me spend some time on the map...

In addition to the Choo Choo Rally, there is also the Oct 27-30 Southeast Bus Nuts annual gathering in Hoboken (southeast) GA, near JAX, not far off I-95, or about 100 miles east of I-85 enroute to Apopka. About 50-60 buses usually. Follow the link:

Cheers!

We have some potential changes to our plans since I just received a call that I might be in a television studio doing some filming late this month in Maryland. So, that might kill our plans to leave the 16th. The GA rally might actually be more on our radar now. Ugh. I have no idea where we'll be in the next three weeks...and it's killing me. I do know we'll be in PA, MD, VA, DE, FL, and AZ. Those are just the places we're staying at least a night or two. All in the next three weeks. $:-\$
