Unless you live where it's really warm all the time, you need something to make the veggie oil work:
1. You can convert it to true biodiesel with methanol and lye. This removes the glycerine, the nasty stuff that gels up in your injector pump, from the oil. The end result can go straight into your tank at up to 100% concentrations.
2. You can heat and filter straight veggie oil right on your vehicle. This requires a separate heated tank for the veggie oil, a bank of filters, and a way to switch between regular diesel and veggie oil so your injectors don't gum up when you shut down.
The best way to go in either case is with some sort of a kit, unless you like to reinvent the wheel.
Biodiesel and veggie oil both have more lubricity than even the old diesel fuel. Properly filtered, they WILL NOT HARM YOUR VEHICLE'S ENGINE. Some older rubber hoses will need to be changed out, but other than that, no modifications need to be made to your engine or injector pump.
The person that says not to use veggie oil or biodiesel either works for big oil, or put dirty nasty oil in his truck without filtering, or his truck was ready to blow up anyway.
