Compare the price of proper diesel fuel and the savings using cheap 
alternatives with the price of a replacement *classic* engine. I reckon it 
is foolhardy to be penny pincing. I wouldn't risk putting anything other

into the tanks I hope the filters do their job...... they have done so 
far.....................
