IF you have enough heat in your VO system the pollak valve will likely fail in short order no matter how you mount it. Beyond that, a single 6way valve contaminates the diesel tank every time you switch back to diesel.

IMHO, not a good idea. There are MUCH better ways to do this and insure you will actually save money in the long run. (IP's and injectors ain't cheap - but AAA plus will tow ya home, up to 100 miles! )

Hydraforce 3 way valves are under $100 ea and will last practically forever. I recommend a valve for each the supply and return and a 3rd valve on the return to 'loop' the (hot) VO back to the pump while running on VO.
