If you don't get the VO fuel to at least 140°F with a flat plate heat exchanger then it will foul the injectors and coke the rings.
yes, in your climate.Thanks for the reply. So, do you think I should just go with the flat plate heat exchanger and skip the heated fuel line altogether?Pat
I agree with mag. Also in a balmy climate like Florida a heated fuel pick-up may not be needed if 3/8 PEX fuel line is used. It will depend on how much PHO and fat is in the UVO. Put a sample in the fridge overnight to see how thick it gets.
PEX fuel line? Are we talking about the same stuff used in plumbing? What advantage does it have over aluminum (other than being significantly less expensive) ?

Ok, Mr Galt. I did like you said and put a sample in the fridge overnight. It gelled pretty solid, but began to liquify minutes after removing it. There was no layering. What does this mean?It will depend on how much PHO and fat is in the UVO. Put a sample in the fridge overnight to see how thick it gets.
