I hate Walmart! Support your local shop/Rusty. Build a relationship you can
both live with. I spent 15 minutes at my local NAPA Auto Supply this
morning replacing my wiper blades on my wife's 2005 Caravan. The guy did
everything for but pay them. I love personal service

Followup report, 10F this morning. I glowed the 190D twice because thats
what the 240D would have required. I needn't have bothered it fired right
up without a worry. Thats with dino oil no less.
Its funny with as badly boogered as the rest of the car is the engine
seems pretty solid.
Question: my car has significant hesitation around 3000-3500rpm until its
run for 5-10 miles. I think there may be some gelled fuel or water left in
the system as after the 5-10 miles have passed it runs perfectly. I
*think* the 190D has a system to warm fuel in the lines is that right? I
ran a bottle of Diesel Kleen through the system to help blow out the
carbon, I'm planning on a bottle of Diesel Suppliment to squester water
and anti-gel.
So one last run to Wal-Mart tonight for the 15w50 and Diesel Suppliment.

But absolutely useless if you can't get the blasted stuff!
I've now been to 3 Wal-Marts and 6 auto parts stores and none had
any or could/would order any.
I can easily get 15w50 and since Johnny B says his car starts good
below zero with it, and since I doubt we'll get much below zero again
this year AND because at 15F this morning with dino 15w40 in it my
190D started just fine I'll be going with the 15w50.

Do it.
