You absolutely need good scales so that you do not go overboard on the NaOH. When I first started doing test batches a milennia ago I went out and bout me kitchen sales at the cheap and dime store.

You might have a torn filter element. Maybe that gunk was already accumulated in the fuel system and the biodiesel dislodged it. Could it be bits of degrading fuel hoses or fuel tank filler neck? Ken

Yes it happened to me after trying to reprocess a batch that was nearly a pass... I went over on the NAoH caustic and turned it all to gel. If you demeth it the soap will settle out and you will be left with good biodiesel. I posted my experience with gel HERE. Cheers, Jon
