Just about everything, with the exception of solvents, settles out of diesel fuel. I have been running reclaimed home heating oil in my diesels for five years. Some of that fuel was old when I pumped it out of cellars and it's not getting any younger. There is no crap in my engine filter canisters.
I also have a DT466 in my semi-retired bucket truck with 150 gallons of fuel tanks. The last fuel I put in that truck was 14 years ago. It starts and runs fine.
So if you are concerned about cleaning parts, don't be. How dirty do you think the solvent is in a repair shop's parts cleaner?
BTW, when you are finished using the diesel fuel to clean parts, let it settle for a month and put it in your diesel tractor's fuel tank.
How are you going to "discard" it. Dump it down the toilet? Probably not. Garages with waste oil heaters should take it.
