Having looked at a couple of "veggie" vehicles in the past, I'd say that assuming they're any different in Texas is a poor assumption. Every one of the ones I saw had injection problems and blowby issues. Hard to say which came first, but if veg oil has been run through it, it's scrap to me. My opinion obviously, but it's a strong one.
