Kevin,
you\'ve got an air leak somewhere between the fuel pickup and the pump.
Hit the search bar above with a few relevant keywords and you should get a few pointers.
To get rid of the taste of diesel you\'ll need at least a 12Yo Macallan but I doubt that even that will neutralise the carcinogens you\'re breathing in!

the problem you have is the fuel filter is drowing in air/from the lift pump diafram that you pump diesel up with or if your model dosen't have this then it's the rubber seals in the filter housing remady is to fit new filter and all new rubber seals
