I've run veggie for about 15,000 miles in a couple of vehicles (when it was at a good price!).

You can't run it in a common rail engine and ONLY use it in a vehicle that has a BOSCH injector pump.

Your van 's engine is OK to run veggie (ie it's not a common-rail) but Citoen use a variety of different pumps. Make VERY SURE it has a Bosch pump !!!!!

At this time of year you're probably going to struggle with a higher ratio than about 25% veggie but in summer 50% should be no problem.

ps. sorry for the Itpro capitals but anything other than a Bosch will fail !!
