Change the filter in a couple of thousand miles... and carry a spare with you and the tools to change it on the fly if necessary.

Do a search for "viton" and "injector" for info on changing the inter-injector leak-off return lines. These lines are biodiesel compatible, but tend to get brittle with age and heat (regardless of whether you use biodiesel or not)...
