Most people that own a diesel engine make their living with it. They are much more particular about fuel quality than you or I. A new engine is typically 50-70K. From my experience one or two clogged filters scares them away as customers before their engine fails. The most common problem is left over glycerin that is not separated from the biodiesel. A centrifuge costs $40K and still won't separate to astm standards. Glycerin quickly clogs the filter with a paste that looks like Vaseline.
