LubroMoly Diesel Purge in any parts stores?

I've been looking around in the local (Portland, OR) parts stores for LubroMoly's Diesel Purge but so far I haven't found anyone that carries it. It seems that so far I have only been able to find it on-line but the shipping on the product almost runs as much as the product does. I also don't want to wait a week or more for the stuff to arrive.
I'm trying to solve a engine noise problem that appears to be the injectors so I want to try Diesel Purge before tearing the injectors apart and clean them.
Is it only possible to buy the stuff on-line?
Is there another product that I can buy in a parts store without going on-line that is just as good?

we need help

I'm with you on this one. I tried search. It seems finding a place to purchase the diesel purge is a difficult job and no one knows the answer, except by ordering it to be shipped to you.

Same in the San Fran area. I've always had to order it (although I'll bet the dealer has it if you are willing to pay for it.)

Yes, they sell to the general public. It is an auto parts store with an emphasis on import cars. I also buy oil and fuel filters there.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'm in Portland almost every day so I can swing by that place. Since it looks like a distributor, do they sell to the general public?

Price is great but the shipping is steep if I would only buy one can. I want to make sure this will cure the problem I have before buying more cans of the stuff. If it doesn't, I may have an expensive problem that I won't want to keep the car.

Just bought two cans of the stuff at Halsey Import Parts today. I'll see if it will help my noise problem.
