Issues Refining Oil

Post by Cody The Wolf » Thu Jul 04, 2013 1:14 am

So I'm trying to make some fuel for my rockets. I first tried pumping oil into a buildcraft refinery, but my buildcraft pump wasnt pumping any oil. So i filled a tank by hand and tried refining it, but my refinery wouldn't work. I then switched over to a Galacticraft refinery, and now it wont fill up wit oil either. Would anyone have any ideas why they aren't working? I am using buildcraft pipes and powering the refinery with a RE cell and Conduits.

Were you using waterproof pipes? Did you have a good enough power source for the refinery?

My typical setup is BC Pump with 2 Redstone Engines > Waterproof Pipe > Tank > Wooden Waterproof Pipe w/ Redstone Engine > Waterproof Pipe > BC Refinery powered by (new style) Steam Engines or better > Wooden Waterproof Pipe w/ Redstone Engine > Waterproof Pipe > Tank.

jagger if I just passed by your set-up, that's not oil, that's sludge.... oil won't give you debuffs if you touch it.

Don't worry. You aren't the only one to do that.

May your love never end
And if you need a friend
There's a seat here alongside me
