LubroMoly and LiquiMoly Diesel Purge are the same thing, just under different names, LiquiMoly is what it's branded in Europe, LubroMoly is what it's branded as here.

The older cans use to say Liqui Moly, the new labels now read Lubro Moly. Lubro Moly is the company name.

I've heard a couple stories where this stuff wasted the seals inside the injection pump.
I'd like to use it in my 240D. What do you think? |

I would not necessarily believe every story I heard. Unless, of course, I heard it at the barber shop. Folks there know everything, just like on the internet.

There aren't any rubber components in the IP or injectors.

The delivery valve holders have rubber o-rings.

For my w115, the rubber o-ring is part A0179974148. If you google that part number with and without the A in front, you can see its image and description.
EPC indicates the same part is used on the OM617 and OM603 as well. They call it a seal ring for the "Pressure Valve Holder" of the IP.

I stand corrected, thanks sixto for pointing that out, sorry DB444.
The epc shows that in a 240, but no five cylinder engines. One parts web site shows it to fit '86-'95s only.

If you broaden your search in EPC to include more than just "North America" vehicles, you can see that the rubber o-ring was used in 5 and 6 cylinder diesels around the world. I wonder why it doesn't show up for North America versions of the OM617 (at least according to EPC)?
