from what I hear tdi's aren't the best with WVO.

I hadn't thought of using a Westy water tank for a veggie tank - but
that's a good thought.
the filler on the side of the van is a bit lame in my experience.
it's sure not built to the standard of any fuel filling point.

I see your logic on having the smaller tank for the hopefully less
needed pump diesel fuel,
and the larger tank for your veggie juice.

I've got the jugs, I gotta start looking for a veggie source.
I've got two diesel vanagons - need to get both ready to sell, one is a
collectible grade pretty pristine very original 82 Sunroof Diesel
Vanagon , and the other one that I'll have ready to sell before that one
likely is a very decent, and rare I dare say, 1893 5-speed Sunroof
Diesel Vanagon.

I've been saving this 18 or so gallon volvo tank, and filler neck, and
fender fill point, and a piece of the fender it all came out of - so I
can make an 18 gallon 'rear seat area' extra fuel tank with real outside
fill point.  Could even been a thousand mile range with the stock tank
plus that one !
