It is impossible to have fuel that is "too clean". Additional filtration can only help to prolong the life of injection components and increase ability to remove water before it gets to the injection components and does damage. My Chevy has a water drain on the factory filter housing and it produces some water every time I drain it. I fail to see why MB did not offer this. RT
