my lucas pumped aef 1.9d polo liked 50% veg nobproblem. just try a 50% mix and keep a spare filter handy. worst case scenario you can use veg savings to buy 2nd hand bosch and lines

A 50% mix isn't enough to save big coin.

I foolishly ran a Rover 218D with a Lucas pump on 100% oil through winter, it conked out after 9000 miles.

What, without an extra fuel preheater? That proves how tough these Lucas pumps are - 9000 miles before borkage! I've run them before through winter on 75% veg, 90%-ish through summer, never had a problem. You just haven't to cane the engine from cold. My theory is that the older/higher mileage they are, the more tolerant they are of gloopy fuel, since there's a bit of wear which allows oil into the gaps to do its lube job.

Nothing at all to aid it, apart from the standard heated fuel filter housing - XUDs heat up very quickly. It had done well over 170k when I bought it, maybe there's something in your theory.
