I'm going to be running SVO from a second dual-chambered tank in the bed. The tank is going to have two separate chambers so I can actually put dirty (just pre-filtered) oil into one side, then as I drive it will be heated and filtered into the other (clean) side of the tank, where it can get pumped to the engine. SJB is right, the filtering is by far and away the most important part of either SVO or biodiesel. It's not even so much the little bits and pieces (although you don't want those) but the water in the oil. There is a company called golden fuel systems that used to make the exact setup I want, but they changed to a newer modular setup with poly tanks which they swear is better, but it's also about $1500 more than the old one. At this point it's looking like I'm pretty much going to be designing and building my own system. The thing I'm trying to address right now is changing the stock mechanical pump to an SVO specific electric pump. I'll keep posted on here as things move along in case anyone is interested!
