What are some potential problems I might run into?
To my knowledge there are no long term empirical studies pertaining to engine damage due to running on heated vegetable oil. Unfortunately there is also a lot of misinformation and generalizations that are made to the effect that this modification will only lead to disaster for your diesel engine. I can say only this in regards to long term damage… many people with just about every kind of diesel engine have logged hundreds of thousands of kilometers of veggie oil driving without anything to show for it aside from normal ware to the engine. In the short term there are some issues which need to be addressed but which can be easily prevented with proper education of the user.
