If the fuel supply pump was bad wouldn it cause starting problems but
not missing problems? This one is missing on #1, i would think if the
pump was bad, that wouldnt be the case. If the IP has a problem however
internally and is leaking, well I could see that maybe.

Kaleb,
The only source for serious dilution is the IP. You may have an issue with
the pump itself or more likely, the fuel pump that's bolted to the side of
the IP has a cracked diaphragm.
Thanks,

Subject: [MBZ] more on the 2.5 turbo
I looked more close at the oil yesterday and it really seems MUCH thinner
than it should be and it seems to have a diesel smell, but hard to tell. I
started it up again stone cold and it fires right up, and runs MUCH smoother
than when warmed up. Idles ok with just a little bit of a miss. The oil
pressure only goes up to about 2.5 though when stone cold, probably because
the oil appears to be diluted with diesel. I will probably change it and
see what happens.
