I believe that was for OIL not diesel.


Not much difference between diesel and oil.

Most definitely there is a difference. Lubricating oil is at engine
temperature which boils off the water vapor of combustion, therefore
virtually free of water (which digests the paper).
Not so in fuel oil - condensation and ground water leaks into the
storage tanks.
