What is a WVO or conversion kit?
To run a diesel vehicle on Waste or Straight vegetable oil you need to preheat the oil prior to using it as a fuel. Preheating the oil makes it viscous enough to flow through the fuel lines and insure proper atomization of the oil. A WVO kit adds a separate vegetable oil fuel tank to your vehicle. The operator starts his or her car on Biodiesel like normal, then after the vehicle reaches proper operating temperature the hot water in the vehicles radiator is passed though a heat exchanger in the vegetable oil tank heating up the vegetable oil. When the vegetable oil reaches operating temperatures the driver switches from the Biodiesel tank to the vegetable oil tank and the car is now running on veggie power. Prior to shutting down the vehicle the driver needs to purge the fuel lines of vegetable oil, which is done by switching back to the Biodiesel fuel tank.
