Thanks for the info! My oil is water free (thankfully) since they dump in right into 5 gallon pails and seal it for me right when its pumped out of the fryer while still hot. I have a two 55 gallon barrel system, with one barrel for settling and filtration, and the second barrel is the holding tank with barrel pump. I have a pump that circulates the oil through two filters to progressively filter it from 25 microns and then 5 microns. After settling its filtered for enough time to (hopefully) ensure all the oil has passed through the filters two or three times, then I switch a valve and it runs through the filters one final time and is dumped into the holding tank. On the final pass, I restrict the volume of oil after the pump so it goes through slowly, probably a gallon per minute or so.

What do you mean by 6 port or 3 port? Is that a switching valve autozone carries that is factory for some car?
