How about the diesel filter? They only list a regular Purolator
filter for the diesel, not a PureOne. Does anyone know if any
other PureOne sizes will work? (I even tried the Volvo TD
fitment, but they don't make a PureOne for it either).

I've been searching for a premium diesel filter for a while,
mostly the Baldwin brand, but can't find anyone that sells them
around here. Apparently they make a B114 oil filter to fit the
D/TD applications.========================
