One of my neighbors has converted 3 - 4 vehicles (VW diesels) so far. Problems? With no preparation except filtering, you can't start the cars on the Veg oil. Car must be started on diesel, then after 5 - 10 minutes of operation, during which heat exchange coils have heated the veg oil tank, you switch over to the warm veggie oil to run the car. 5 minutes before shutting down, switch back to diesel, so you're starting on the stuff which will flow without heating. He hasn't had it running through a Canadian winter yet, but I'll keep you posted.
