Is this the same as running new veggie oil in a separate tank (like the old greasel kits), where you dont turn on the veggie tank till the engine is warm, and then shut if off before you stop to avoid gelling in the engine?

Or do you run this WVO just like biodiesel?

yes, it is essentially the same idea as the greasel kit

those are 2 tank systems where you start/stop on diesel then switch to wvo when its warm

i dont run biodiesel because it will make my lines deteriorate
