Had to give up on supplier

Had to tell one of my suppliers thanks but I'll have to pass. Oil that I got from him was a creamy brown, very stong smelling (like vomit), and had a lot of solids in it. It would plug up the filter rather quickly, and I believe was the cause of my pumps early demise. My two other suppliers' oil is much better, now need to find another...

Thats a frustration! I didnt think a person would have a big selection of suppliers up there in RC! Do you have a good selection of suppliers there?

The local grease service charges around $40 bucks a barrell to pick up. We try get the smaller ma & pop places when they open up before he gets them under contract. Have had a couple tell me that as soon as the contract was up they would get a hold of me. There are always people eating out no matter what the economy is doing and this is a tourist ecomomy here...

Thats the truth! Have to appreciate the Super Size options out there.. means more fuel in the tank! I hear many talking about contracts going on with bigger out fits. I know there is one here, but theres so many places that have WVO, they dont get em all, leaving tons for the little guy! Good to know you are set!
