Hmm, may their filters clog, their pumps jam and their piston rings not seal. If its anything like restaurant owners that think they'll "have a go at running on waste oil" then they only try once before realising that it isn't as simple as course filtering and tipping in the tank... Nicking oil from behind pubs is hardly a long term sustainable fuel source is it? [Edited on 13-11-2009 by tttonyyy]
