Good on you! You have nothing to fear, if you've read any of my posts about vegetable oil, you'll see I've been your guinea pig.
You aren't using bio diesel, but SVO - straight veg oil. Bio diesel is a time and energy consuming spirit (therefore less green) cracked from svo using petrochemicals (methanol).
Don't listen to the guy talking about glycerides, he's a typical tow the line nay-sayer, who'll be using it too when it comes out of a pump and all the other sheep say its ok for him. ****, that sounded a bit confrontational, didn't mean it to, just so many people assume that if the government or authorities don't endorse something, then it must be bad. How little fun we'd have if that were true!
DO read my posts though. 10k miles on 70%svo so far. If you go 50/50 you'll play it safe in the cold. The white spirit is pointless, just make sure there's some diesel already in there. The government's 5% directive is a **** take token gesture, and may as well not be bothered with, when land management gets up to speed, huge amouts of diesels will run on svo.
You'll need a tank and line heater for 100% svo, something I'll be working on over the winter. This is the real solution, as at over 40 degrees C, the veg oil is almost as runny as diesel. The only difficulties without a heater and over 70% mixes is the tank's lift pump strains and will wear more, and the gloopier juice emulsifies less easily in your pressurised common rail, so starting takes a few turns.
Also, you create a lot of plastic waste buying it in 3 litre bottles - go to a booker cash and carry or any big asian cash and carry and you'll find 20 litre cans for 11 quid, easily recycled. Makro less cheap. KTC, Wesson etc are brands.
Put a rag on the roof, can on that, syphon with hose into tank.
Good o'.
