"Used to" saw the light eh! I gave it up once. Spent 12 months working in grounds maintenance at h.m.a.s Creswell, right on Jervis bay . Best year of my 20 working years! The money wasn't the best though, hence I'm back machining. [emoji2]

My cousin has a house at Errol Bay, its great to go fishing in Jervis bay, right up against the big cliff out near the point, awesome scenery too out there.
Bit too far away to visit often.

Yeah it's a top spot that's for sure. Was fishing out there at point perpendicular on Sunday actually! Didn't do real good though. Only got a few squid. [emoji2]

Boys done ok too this year, I got me a new exercise machine,,,,,, I think they's dropping hints.
Ok folks, time to add a few pounds, catch ya's after today.

I use 'used' canola as bar oil now. I drain it from my fryer and filter it. It works great, and it is cheap. Virgin canola smells better than the used fryer stuff, but I do not have anything better to do with the used oil. Canola oil has gone down to about $5 a gallon here, while bar oil has gone up to around $10 a gallon. Red: half price & a lot healthier. Spill some, so what? Spray it around the yard, so what? Drink some, so what? Crank up the oil pump, and so what?

I am not ready to use canola in the gas mix just yet. I am not skilled in the bio-diesel making process with the peroxide and vinegar. I presume you have to remove the glycerin? Also I do not have any phenyl acetate handy to blend in.

Here is a blerb from Perdue on the advantages of Canola as a 4 stroke lubricant:

And one point of interest: <4-stroke blended Canola oil> when tested for marine toxicity was found to be over 210,000 times less toxic than its petroleum counterpart.
Cheers.
If you look at the preview in that previous link I posted, it shows an image of how seriously gummed up the test engine became when they used a particular canola oil blend. I'm tempted to shell out the extra bucks for the full report.

Meantime, here's a commercial castor oil 2T product from Klotz:

Nothing a good squirt of expanding foam gap filler deep up the spout wouldn't fix, and up his muffler too.
