That GE wide cab is right were it needed to be, NOT in the lead "^)  I'd rather run with and older rebuilt SD in the lead anyday of the week.

Does bad fuel contribute to this or just not doing routine maintenance?

Have been seeing a lot more of this as of late with the new CSX Deferred Maintenance program,   (which really isn't new,  just more prevalent.
