I have a steady "free" supply of ISO 150 lube oil. I've had an analysis done on the oil and compared it to available information online for heating oil/diesel fuel. The viscosity is higher and BTU/gal is higher on the lube oil.
What can I do to use this as home heating oil? A local farmer is cutting it 50/50 with diesel fuel and running it problem free in his equipment. I'd assume that I could do the same for heating oil?
Are there other options to thin it out? Could I change the injection nozzle on my boiler and run it straight?
I see a lot of information online about using waste motor oil but this is a different situation. Thanks all
