heated filter from a Camry may work fine for *filter* heating
but you will still need to heat veggie at the tank, in the lines,  
between filter and IP, and if possible at the injector lines themselves
this last is generally done electrically - insulated resistance wire  
running standard 12v through
there are injector heaters available relatively cheaply on the market
it is also possible to make your own
it is also possible to run WVO w/o inj line heaters
I have been doing it for 2 yrs
just getting a good 2-tank coolant-heated system working properly is  
a major undertaking
again, I recommend this site:

lots of great free info there; lots of helpful folks when you get stuck

good luck
