Not entirely true. If you run B80+, you are more likely to have the cleaning affect of biodiesel. But for anything less than B80, you are unlikely to have any issue. I run B50 in a warm moist marine diesel that is old as 1977....and no problems with filters.

They've got a jar of B99 sitting ontop of the pumps so you can see if its gelling at the ambient temp..
That's pretty cool. I need to try that. My marine diesel without glow plugs won't start with B50 in the winter.
