But if you want to set up on derv and when going back to cheapshit fuel up idle ever so slightly and should be fine, remember these pumps were designed to run on derv slightly thicker in viscosity than modern derv but not as thick as veg, its a tricky one as could clog injectors filter and allsorts that can affect idle
I wish id never ran veg for 3 months I put it down to my last rod failure lol
Interesting points CJ, but I can't see how veg could cause conrod failure unless through making the oil sticky? But yeah I agree the list of things that veg could clog is endless.

also, sure theres no air ingress? fuel filter ok?
I change my fuel filter 2000-3000miles on veg.
what veg you using?
Hi piggy, yes I have cleaned the in tank strainer on two occasions, I made a thread with photos actually, it was quite manky the first time, the second time was just to check how quickly it was gumming back up but I thought I might as well clean it again since I had it out anyway.
I have about 1500 miles on my current fuel filter.
I am using Tesco veg/sunflower oil, depending on which one they have in stock.
Air ingress, hmm, that's a tough one but if there was air ingress I would expect it to cause problems on DERV which is doesn't.
