If your injection pumps are only lasting 20-30 ys.. and you consider that normal life.. then I'd quit using the waste oil in them.

I mostly dink with antiques... I see plenty of diesels with non rebuilt pumps.. the pump on my 5000 is over 30ys old... looks to be doing fine too.. no over fueling.. starts easy.. cutoff works good.. etc. Probably because i don't contaminate it with heavy metals and soots.. you know.. things the injectors weren't made to handle... vs clean fuel... the stuff they were made to handle.
