Changed fuel filter, after draining water - bottom valve. after no start went and bought quart of diesel and poured into top of bowl. started after a bit ran rough. bubbles pouring into sight glass but it kept running. decided to continue trip. 250 miles later with no incident bowl was clear and engine now will slow idle without stalling. The manual shows the high level when to change the filter. as some of you suggested I change the filter even though it was not even half way up. Lesson is
dont wait until its high in bowl like the manual would suggest.
