I am gonna run a 50/50 (WMO) mix soon and will need to build a system. I was thinking a 50 drum with a hand rotary pump going through a 2 filter system 10 and 1 micron from these guys WVO Filtration Kit - Portable Vegetable Oil Filter for SVO Biofuel. I will be getting clean oil from Oil tank trucks. I have a company truck and will be putting this in my m1008 that I use as a "daily driver" less than 10k miles a year. Do you see any potential problems or suggestions????

Have you ever pumped diesel fuel with a hand rotary pump? It's a lot of work. Factor in the much higher viscosity of the WMO and trying to push that through a filter?

Harbor freight sells what they call their 1" Clear Water Pump a lot of the biodiesel guys use them and claim the work good. Would try that first, at $39 it is probably cheaper than the hand pump.

I like the looks of the filter kit, will give that closer consideration.
