Yeah, but a filter would do good enough for less hassle. You could probably
spin a bunch of crap out of diesel fuel straight from the pump but the
engines are made to tolerate a certain amount of crud. Nothing lasts
forever and for me, it's not worth it to try and get an engine to last
forever if the car is going to rust around it anyway. I get 2000 miles out
of a 5 micron filter on wvo that I let sit in a barrel for 30 days.
