So what is the cost of WVO when you figure out all the time you spend on it and the inconvenience? You have to admit it is much easier to just top off the tank when you need to instead of having to be next to home base. If you get a 2 tank system, you will lose some trunk space. From what I see, if Biodiesel becomes more popular and cheaper, I will get it more regularly instead of just buying it every now and then for a cleaning of the fuel system.

WVO, OTOH, strikes me as a application where it is warm and you are going to be near a fuel source. Home. IOW, I cannot take that car out for a vacation or to drive around and it is confined, for all practical purposes, to near my home. This talk of a tank heater is fine. However, you still have to purge the fuel lines (assuming 2 tank system) before you make an extended stop and where would your heater plug into if it were a parking lot?
