I run a little Stanadyne in my 99 E300. Goal is to protect the injection pump.

If I recall correctly, I've read that the 5%-10% biodiesel added to most diesel fuels adds sufficient lubricity to protect the injection pumps, at least on the older models (eg, the 617.92_ series). In these engines, my understanding is that the upper injection pump relies on fuel for lubrication, and the lower part of the pump utilizes engine oil.

I add 3 Oz of 2 stroke oil every fill to ensure the IP is getting some lubrication. I do this only to my 92 2.5 turbo since it was manufactured when diesel was not as clean as it is today.
