You will have to add sulfur replacement additive for that rotary IP. I

Rotary pumps use the fuel as a lubricant I can see where there would be a
problem if ultra-low sulfur diesel has less lubricating properties than the
old stuff. But if memory serves me right, it's the paraffin in the diesel
that is a lubricant, not the sulfur.
Also, rotary pumps rarely last more
