Where to buy Lubro Moly?

I hear this stuff is awesome, I'd like to do a diesel purge on my 300D but I cannot locate this stuff. I see that a couple websites stock it, but I was wondering if any nationally known stores carry it so I can pick it up locally. I've searched the threads but have yet to find any results on where to buy it.
I've got Autozone, Advanced Auto Parts, NAPA, and Auto Value...

Thanks!

You'll burn $5.00 of fuel looking for a $10.00 item.

It is not even a $10.00 item.
Call Phil at Fastlane (This forum) his price is lower, he ships quickly and they support a certain forum you might find helpful!

I wonder if there is a Bio-Diesel station located in the most densly populated area in the USA. I've yet to see one, maybe one day I'll run into one.

Lubro-Moly Diesel Purge is a magical potion from the Old Country that does wonders cleaning your injectors while they are still installed on the head. For optimum efficacy you run the engine on it straight for a few minutes from within a jar. It improves the injector spray pattern, lubes things up, etc... A good thing about once a year.

Sometime in the last month or so, someone posted a link to a company that sells a Diesel Purge kit that contains hoses, instructions, etc.

It was not particularly cheap (or expensive) but looked like it would save some time in assembling your own setup. If I remember right, it contained 2 cans of Diesel Purge, instructions, and some hoses for a little over $20.

My computer crashed a week ago and all my data and links for November and part of December are gone so I cannot pass the link on to you. Maybe someone else will remember it and post it.

kits at **************

Kamil's price at Impex is the best I have seen on Lubromolly. I have ordered from **************.com and they have a few interesting kits that come with 2 cans of LubroMolly, the fuel filters you need to do the flush and he always sends detailed instructions with his kits. His does not come with the plastic bottle, but he says to use a 2 liter drink bottle. Their kits come in different configurations. The nice one is the "welcome wagon" kit with 2 lubro moly cans, the valve adjustment wrenches, the vacuum line and connectors, 2 service manuals, fuel and oil filters for $100. Check it out.
