The Great Veg Oil/Biodiesel Debate

Have 3 Peugeot / Cit engines running on diesel/VO mixes - we increase the VO percentage in summer, decrease in winter - from 20 - 85% dependent on ambient temp. As said here, they work well in these engines (the excellent XUD enignes anyway) due to them having a heated fuel filter. We've been doing this for well over 100,000 miles now on those. Was using 10% VO in landy (1984 2.5 NA) but now got supply of genuine biodiesel - so far all fine, except at first when as expected, the greater solvent power of the biodiesel cleared all crap out and blocked fuel filter (normal in older vehicles when chaning over). Wife was driving and had to get recovered - recovery guy said 4th car on biodiesel he'd recovered in 2 weeks! However, new filter and all is fine. Runs perfect, and even runs quieter.
