Are these problems with WVO

I did an experiment yesteday and bought a 5 gal. container of fresh vegetable oil and added the same amount of diesel in my empty tank. Ran great. Started easy this morning 70*. I have arranged to pick up some WVO today but have a few concerns:

1. Read an article on forever something.com and it mentioned that the acids in WVO are harmful to the rotary style injection pump on my truck (1991 IDI). Is this just in strait WVO setups or any combintion thereof?

2. If these acids are a problem, is there a way to neutralize them, ie. fuel additive???

Any onfo would be greatly appreciated.
