Just the single canister filter on the 642.

But when I had my infamous gas in the diesel incident (service stations fault) 2 years ago the dealer did remove the tank to drain it.

BTW the oil company insurance ended up denying the claim and I got soaked for $2500. After they told me to go get them fixed and they would cover it. There is a corporate insurance company that is located in a suburb of Kansas City that starts with S and ends with wick. They are b@stards who do everything to avoid paying claims. Including threatening to prosecute me for insurance fraud. Too little dollars to make it worth suing them since it's my word against theirs.

Yes the CDIs do not like B100. Supposedly they should not be run on greater than B5. What do we do in those states with a B20 mandate?
