Where to buy Liquimoly Diesel Purge: physical location
After searching around this and other sites, I am still having a tough time finding a brick+mortar shop to buy this product at. I don't think any of the McParts stores carry it.
Anyone know of a physical location where you can buy Liquimoly Diesel Purge in the Austin, TX area??? I'm thinking a truckstop might be worth a shot (?).

There is an indy here in San Antonio on the Northwest side that carries it....probably too far to drive, but you might check an indy European auto mech in Austin?

Napa website didn't turn up any results for Diesel Purge.
However::::: Phoenix Motor Works at 6th and Lamar just quoted me $9/can. Sounds good to me!!! Hope this might help someone else out,

Passed a Napa on the way, stopped in to price-compare, they didn't carry it. Whaaaaa wwaaaaaa
Got 2 cans at Phoenix Motor Works for $9/ea. Place looked like they have to pay quite a bit of rent based on the location....$90/hr labor rate. Seems extreme to me, but what do I know, I've got a freelance guy who is a w123 specialist and only charges $50/hr. Austin is $$$$$$

Also at NAPA here
I was in the NAPA on Florida Avenue here in Tampa earlier today and they have a new display of Lubro Moly oils and additives. Diesel purge was on the shelf at under $6.00 a can.

I was just talking to the NAPA manager at a nearby store regarding Lubro Moly. He didn't know if this was a nationwide change or not but regionally they are starting a push to start stocking parts for European cars, in particular Mercedes, in addition to the Lubro Moly products. Before most of the parts were only in one warehouse (Indianapolis?) and it would take a few days to get it in and the new push will either have them in the store stock or at the local area warehouse for next morning delivery at the latest.
The downside is that there is a push from the accountants to get the inventory down for the year end tax assessments and so the stores will not start stocking the new items until January though they can be special ordered in the meantime. Well, that and the standard counter drones can be, ah, less than familiar with these vehicles. But if you talk to a manager or the one greybeard in the store they can generally help you. |

The NAPA guy here said they do not carry it but if I can get a NAPA part number for it he can get it. Is there anyone with a NAPA store that carries it that can get us a part number?

I know its a bit far from Texas, but the Discount Auto store in Key West Florida carries it on shelf, of course the others inthe Key's don't gp figure. Have to check Napa next time I'm by there, as its about 100 feet from another Discount Auto makes it convenient for getting things
