W124 to run on wvo

It has a pre-filter right next to the main filter, under the bonnet.

Much easier to attend to.

yeah, same as 606, however you could end up with blocked pipes from the tank running under the car.

i had this (with the fuel strainer) - think it was solid fats that had gradually built up, blocking the pipe. I Had to disconnect both ends, and used a bicycle pump to blow air through it to unblock it. something flew out the end, wish i had put a bag around it to catch the debris to inspect but didnt.

this was a few years back now, no problems recently. Probably all due to quality of the WVO.... in the early days i used filter socks which arnt as good as filtering via cartridge filters.

Get your filtration right and you'll have no bother with used oil and deffo no probs with new oil. In very cold weather add at least 20% diesel.
