It was more common to replace a newer looking aftermarket fuel filter with a mecedes one, and have that keep it out of limp.
But what I'm more suspect of, is if you have a good fuel filter, but the wvo requires more vacuum to get through the filter, or upto the filter. If you ordered a lift pump, I'd put that on before digging much further. Otherwise, just keep running straight diesel for now

thanks, i'll fit the pump next monday as i (hopefully) head south towards warmer climates. the fuel filter is brand new and the issue is still there on diesel so i would expect that it'd go back to normal when the pressure is restored.
