This is an article on diesel fuel quality and storage tanks. It also has excellent information from Caterpillar and John Deer engineers on injection systems and dirt. Also recomendations on fuel filters in modern diesels. It pretty much confirms what a lot of people have been saying here about added filtration. I was kind of sitting on the fence about getting an extra filter. Now I am convinced to get one.

Johnny,


Great article! I think the article provides good anecdotal evidence that improving filtration will decrease maintenance costs for our trucks in the long run.
