Also pump in a bowl of derv soaking hopefully clean it back up.
Pump look similar but much worse than the one in the corsa. I have pics.
I get my veg from a guy on the veg forum who has been filtering for years and has whole shed dedicated to it.
First time I'd had a problem with any of the cars.
Soaked mine in some waste petrol (been sat in tank for literally years) and the stuff just came off with agitation after a few hours.
Do you heat it up at all before injection?
The corsa had a FPHE on it from a combi.
That too has been settled and flushed through. Less gunk came out of it which was a little surprise since the make up of the FPHE to add turbulence is just asking for settling veg to bake on.
I'm heating to about 70-80C and it does take it toll. Fuel lines become service items. Any passage will get some clog over time. But it works a darn sight better in any weather when the viscosity is closer to derv.
Pump was fine after changing seals.
I'm running on new now as it's 65p and not worth the trip to collect the waste filtered stuff.
Over the last few seasons I've seen the quality of the waste veg get worse as the suppliers are switching to worse oils and more palm. And I fear something is slightly off with the filtering as I was starting to get a lot more drop out even in good weather over summer. - I think there is a move to hot filtering unfortunately.
65p is still getting on for half what the pumps are and you can't buy 300ltr a go on loyalty
