    I have been heating oil-Brad Penn 50 wt-to remove alcohol. How many times do you all recommend to use the reheated? I use 16 quarts in a twin turboed BBC and after every pass (tractorpull). Is there a number of uses before it loses its effectiveness?

    I do 2-3 runs then drain it, I gets one reheat cycle then I throw it away . It seems to come back to original Color etc but never holds the exact same oil pressure as the new oil did so don’t want to repeat the cycle again . I know of other racers doing up to 3 cooking cycles successfully but I can’t seem to bring myself to do it that many times
