Iev just got this 1983 Mercedes Benz 300D,I like to know,diesel additive I should use,redline,hows,ex,ex Iev just started Auto RX on it,it has 220000 on the clock.
 
Howe's, Power Service, Schaeffer's, and LCD from the top of this page make very good additives. Use the right engine oil, change the filters regularly and you'll get another 220 on the clock.
5cyl? Turbo?
 
I guess I'll tack my question onto the end of this thread. What's a good brand of injector cleaner for an old diesel? My car is an '84 Volvo 240 diesel and I'm experiencing surges in power (mostly at higher RPMs) and a slight loss in fuel mileage.
 
Not quite an additive, but if you're injectors are fouled, look into "Diesel Purge". I think LiquiMoly makes it. Might be worth a try before replacing nozzles.
