it may not so much be dirty, unfiltered oil as moisture (water)in the oil. get off the veggie oil.....NOW. It will screw up the injector pump and you do not want to replace that! Take some of the oil out of the tank and allow it to settle for at least 2 weeks at room temp. Look for seperation.There is a lot more to burning veggie oil than just running it through a sock and dumping it in your tank.It should be filtered 3 times down to 1 micron. allowed to settle. De-watered Tested for water content.I personally do not have a problem with burning this stuff, but cautions must be taken before it comes home on a rollback.
