Injectors for veggie oil

Is the injector fuel spray setting different for veggie oil vs diesel?

I have one bad injector, it's leaking, that I need to replace. If the setting is different for veggie I need to let my mechanic know. He uses Bosch injectors, which is what is in my car for three years now since I installed the Elsbett system. (mercedessource came out with their veggie kit within months after I installed the Elsbett).

Thanks,

Keith

75' 300D getting rid of A/C compressor

Hello - I have a 1975 300D with an A/C system that doesn't work (and I don't need anyways). I want to remove the A/C compressor because it gets in the way of reaching the alternator. I run Veg and am considering putting a diesel start up tank (fuel cell) in it's place since there is lots of room on that side of the engine and it would be easier than putting a tank in the trunk and running hoses all the way to it (if the york A/C compressor wasn't there there is plenty of room) So . . .

I read somewhere recently that one or more very new diesel passenger cars have a system which applies heat to the fuel just before it enters the injectors,
