It's a hotly debated topic (I only post on hotly debated topics), but many diesel owners also burn a filtered version of their waste crankcase oil and ATF. I heard somewhere that most of the oil we "recycle" ends up making asphalt for roads. ATF stains your fuel red, so you may end up getting in trouble with the fuel cops, for violating the fuel dye laws.
