Vegetable oil filters

It is highly recommend to use a heated filter in vehicles which are powered by vegetable oil. By using a heated filter, you put less strain on the system as a whole and are far less likely to suffer from filter blockages and fuel starvation. By heating and thinning down the vegetable oil at the filter, the fuel will pass through the filter more easily, putting less strain on your injector pump. See filters section for more detail.

It is also important to ensure that when running on used cooking oil (UCO) the fuel is well filtered before it is put in the fuel tank. Gravity filtering using sock filters provide a very time, cost and energy efficient means of filtering the raw vegoil to fuel grade. See our Filtering Guide for more details

BFH1 Bosch Universal Filter Head

Cast aluminium bosch filter head with universal ports. Ideal for adding a proper diesel filter to your system rather than a disposable one or for mating with an oil cooler to make an eckes style heat exchanger or heated filter.

  • Accepts standard spin on diesel filters with M16 thread
  • M14 thread for fuel fittings
  • Fuel inflow from either left or right
  • Fuel outflow from either top, left or right
  • Blanks and fittings ordered separately

This unit can double as a looped return tee since the vegoil from the fuel tank can enter on one side and the returning fuel from the injector pump can enter on the other. When mated with a suitably powerful heat exchanger between the filter and the head this could be used as an heated filter and heat exchanger in one.

  • For standard fitment requires 3 blanks and 2 hose fittings
  • For fitment as tee requires 2 blanks and 3 hose fittings
