I ran a WVO/RUG blend in my '99 all the miles I had it, and my friend has an identical car (color and all), and he has upwards of 40,000 Homebrew Biodiesel miles on it. The factory rubber hoses needed replacing mostly because they were starting to crack, but not because of running Bio. However, the delivery valve seals started to leak, so I replaced every Oring, rubber hose, and plastic fuel line under the hood just "because". The leaking DV seals could have been from age, or from the Bio, I don't know. Either way it is a small price to pay for the cheap fuel costs (about $1.25 per gallon, all things considered). The car runs awesome, and smells great too!
