From what I've read/heard, there is no problem with WVO affecting natural rubber fuel hoses and seals. I understand that trace amounts of methanol found in biodiesel degrade natural rubber over time. Many have run biodiesel in vehicles with natural rubber for a long time without seeing any leaking. Others change the hoses/seals prior to use just to be sure.

I hope to use WVO as much as possible and use biodiesel when its too cold to use the WVO.
