wvo/svo second tank safety

Everyone makes fun of me because I pour veggie oil into my mercedes fuel tank but the one thing I have above all of the two tank folks is that I get to experience the safety of the mercedes fuel system. The mercedes tank was designed by experts and is as safe as possible.

Everyone is so caught up in modifying there vehicle but what about a car fire. What guarantee do you have that you will not experience a vehicle fire. I have and they are no fun...I once had a turbo let go and the vehicle caught fire and it requried 6 fireman and a big yellow truck.

I have seen many designs for heating the oil... everything form piping coolant to using the exhaust. I have even seen where they stick a red hot glow plug directly into the oil.... (boy that sounds safe)

well i am sorry I will stick to my tried and true mercedes fuel tank and I will just have to let you all make fun of me. Can you imagine the awedacity of people who believe they can design a better fuel tank....
