I can't answer that one, when I started using veggie oil I clogged a filter suggesting that it loostened up some gunk, but it could easily have been a coincidence. It is not clear (to me and others) whether veg oil cleans the fuel system.

Biodiesel on the other hand does have a cleaning side effect so you could find your local station that sells a biodiesel mix and burn that. You'd end up with a cleaner system and a "green" car. Just carry some extra filters when you start...
