Diesel Purge

Yeah, perhaps I'm obessed. My little TD project is finished. Those
that read my posts know that I've been working on this car for a couple
months. Since I replaced my nozzles already, would there be much of a benefit to doing a diesel purge? Seems it may be beneficial to the IP to
a degree I've read. Does it also clean up the combustion chambers and
related components? Would it be worth it to do it now, or should I leave it
out of "base-lining" this car? My intent is to make this car my last car
project.

Purge is 70% Diesel. With new nozzles there really isn't much benefit to it except to feel good.

If you have new nozzles then Purge would just be for preventative maintenance. It will help keep the nozzles new.
