Hi Stan, I too would filter it then use it in my PSD as long as it was algee free. Just run some fuel thru a coffee filter and if there's a problem you'll see it on the filter paper, black slime. There's several $10 mfg biocide treatment for 50gal of #2. Any truck stop will carry it as well as a diesel parts house. As you get down to the last 2 or 3gal then it might get pretty nasty looking depending on how well the tank was taken care of. I would toss that part rather than filter it, if it didn't look clean. Put a sample in a covered glass jar in the sun for 15nin. You would then see if there was a problem with the fuel. In the sun it should look like amber or gold colored. T_Bone
