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
