operation "recycle filthy kerosene" in full swing!

Couple of thoughts.
1. Kerosene is expensive. $38 for 5 gallons (I got some today).
2. Made a funnel, spent very little time on it. Two minutes tops. I attached a fuel filter to the bottom of an off the shelf oil funnel.
3. Only bad news- Kerosene is so full of garbage, fuel filter gets clogged too quick- , slowing to a drip, so it took a while, but, it did get the kerosene pretty clean.

Dirty kerosene goes in the funnel-



Clean (ish) kerosene comes out.



I dump bike chains, etc right in the cup as not to have to clean the whole ultrasonic cleaner. I test cleaned an already waxed chain. STILL a bunch of crap came off in the ultrasonic. I think if you put me in an ultrasonic cleaner, I would completely come apart. Once the crap was gone, There would be nothing of me left.
