Where can you get the Diesel Purge? I'd like to try it on my '85.

One other thing that people may be interested in is SeaFoam. I haven't tried it in the Benz yet (haven't changed the oil yet, although it's about due), but I've used it in the truck a few times. I just pour it in at the auto parts store, drive home, and change the oil. After doing this two or three times, my truck's oil, after about 2500 miles, is cleaner than most diesel oil is after 5 miles. It literally looks like I just poured it out of the bottle. Only diesel I've seen where the engine oil isn't black as coal dust.

Not affiliated with the product or anything; just figured I'd pass it along.
