NOT much concerned with prices, it are what it are.....If I think its too spendy, I dont buy it.....How DID you get diesel out of the red pump? If you
werent buying diesel WHY are you posting on this thread?

Who said I said anything about you Chuckie...
What I offered was a COMPARISON. Diesel to premium which by the way is made in the USA - all of it, every last drop. Super Shell white pump with the
Nitrogen Additive. Made in Mexico diesel is within a few cents as much as made in USA UBA premium gasoline. There is more to life than watching
Smackdown, Tractor Pulls, and wondering just how cold that next brewskie is going to be. Rather than wander around looking for idle gringos yesterday
I took a tour of the 11.02 MW CFE plant in Vizcaino. It can grow to 30 MW capacity total. But then again I missed an afternoon of reading Hustler, and
watching the latest NASCAR phenomenon.

He appears to be a bit demented....apparently he doesnt read his posts before he pushes the button.....Trying to make the world revolve around him
must be a stessful business...that last post made no sense at all..I dont have TV so cant relate to that nonsense...notice how he moves away from what
he said in the prior post....From flood plain to price analysis...neither of which have anything to do with the intent of this thread.....

Just have to add my 2cents worth on the diesel. We have traveled baja for years in both our old 92 chev diesel and our "new to us " 2004 GMC diesel.
Only thing we did years ago was add a inline LARGE prefilter with a drain on the bottom. Takes us back to remembering when we packed a piece of
chamois to filter fuel thru on the bikes. Mileage on the new truck is 12-14 with camper or towing and better with only the shell. Doesn't seem to get
better or worse either side of the border. Having to choose between diesel or gas I think we would go with the diesel option as our service life with
them has been considerally longer than our gas trucks. The 92 has about 350K and is now raising a grandson and the 04 has 145K with no issues.

I adapted a fuel filter which is used on John Deere tractors. It has a snap on see through glass cartridge, which can be changed in less than 2
minutes. Filter kit is from Stanadyne diesel systems, part # 13519..Wix filter # is33370...I was driven to this mod by having to change a filter in
100+ temps on a rock road somewhere near La Purisima on the old road...I also installed an el cheapo electric booster fuel pump to fill and prime the
filter..toughest part on newer diesels is finding a place to mount it, engine compartments are pretty full...on the 90 it bolted to the firewall...

I did not bypass the stock filter retaining it for the water seperator, which is relativeley easy to get to.
