In Europe there is a requirement that diesel have a Bio content. I would think
that all European diesels and system products would be bio proof.

fuel is flowing) & is 10 micron. Fibers have not collected in this filter.

> greetings guys - i have been making and using BIO for a few years now . I have
Nissan Patrol 4.2 TDI - one thing i have noticed is that if i run more than 50%
bio in my fuel blend it tends to break down the Fuel filter in the Truck - it
loosens the fibers and they end up in the last VERY fine filter before the fuel
pump , which means i have to keep spare copper seals for the Banjo nut to the
fuel pump so i can clean it when it blocks up. has anyone else had this problem
???
