The tallow is a high energy fuel. It has IIRC more energy than petroleum diesel.
The only thing it lacks is liquidity, and that can be added using heat.
If heated and filtered and then (while still liquid) added to the heated feul tank, it can pass thru the heated fuel line and heated filter to the fuel c/o valve and then to the IP.

I am NOT joking, this stuff really works well, is ULTRA STABLE (very low polymerisation) and smells like a BBQ on wheels. (where canola smells more like a deep fryer on wheels)
