My Dad and I used to have a Peugeot 504 Diesel that we used for commuting and we soon found it would run on kerosene, Jet 'A' and Home Heating Oil.
One of the most amazing things I ever experienced was running the engine on 100% Petroleum Based Cleaning Solvent. No knock, no smoke and a significant power increase.
I wouldn't think Wesson Oil would readily mix with Diesel, but I have never tried it.
Is there any audible change in the combustion process with a bio fuel???...Bert

yes, the chem analysis on the biodiesel I purchased recently for my son's science project lists the cetane rating as 52.6! I haven't used it yet, but many here who have used biodiesel report smoother operation.
